Noritada Saneyoshi's Playing Career

Noritada Saneyoshi was born in Minamiuwa District, Ehime, Japan, on October 19, 1972. After finishing university, he joined the football club Gamba Osaka in 1995. He quickly became a key player for the team.

Saneyoshi played many games for Gamba Osaka for a long time. In the 1990s, he mostly played as a left side back. This position means he played on the left side of the defense.

In 2000, he got injured and could not play much. But he came back strong. From 2002, he often played as a center back. This is a central defensive position.

With Saneyoshi as a defender, Gamba Osaka finished third in the J1 League in 2002 and 2004. In 2005, his team, Gamba Osaka, won the J1 League championship for the very first time! This was a huge moment for the club. He played less from 2006 and stopped playing football at the end of the 2007 season.

In July 2018, the manager of the U-23 team, Tsuneyasu Miyamoto, became the manager of the main Gamba Osaka team. So, Saneyoshi took over as the U-23 team manager again. He left Gamba Osaka at the end of 2018.
