I should add that the players are under 18 (obviously) and the JFA Academy Fukushima ones haven't graduated yet, so Bayern Frauen have had no option to sign any of them yet.

@cybeam1.bsky.socialOta and Kishida are very skilled MFs with excellent mid range shots from outside the box. Both scored such shots vs WE League teams already at only 17.
Ota in addition is excellent at very fast, aggressive, high press. She also plays great vertical passes.
@cybeam1.bsky.socialSumiya Runa is a super dribbler who has been playing in the first team of JEF Chiba in the WE League consistently. She was one of the youngest WE League players ever.
Very interesting are also INAC Kobe Leonessa's AMs Ota Arisu and Kishida Yuka.
@cybeam1.bsky.socialHanashiro Mei got early on promoted to full training with the 1st Frauen team. She converted easily passes from Harder and others. Harder gave her a lot of praise afterwards.
Matsushita Harura is a huge MF talent, engine of her teams.
