Kyoga Nakamura (仲村 京雅, Nakamura Kyōga, born 25 April 1996) is a Singaporean professional footballer who plays as a central-midfielder, defensive-midfielder, attacking-midfielder or right-midfielder for Singapore Premier League club Tampines Rovers. Born in Japan, he hopes to represent the Singapore national team after fulfiling the residency requirements.

Club career

Albirex Niigata Singapore

Nakamura signed for Albirex Niigata Singapore for the 2019 Singapore Premier League season, joining the White Swans from Japanese third-tier side YSCC Yokohama.[1][2] The Japanese playmaker scored seven during the season, including a 35-metre lob in a 3-3 draw in July against Home United, earning him a nomination for the Goal of the Year accolade.[3] He was also nominated for the Young Player of the Year award.[4]

Tampines Rovers

After skippering Albirex Niigata Singapore to a 4th placed finish and nominated for the 2019 SPL Young Player of the Year and Goal of the Year awards, Nakamura was snapped up by Singaporean giants Tampines Rovers FC.[5]

In January 2022, Kyoga was handed a new five-year deal by the Stags in an unprecedented move in Singaporean football, making it the longest contract extension in Singaporean league history. Kyoga had turned down offers from clubs in Japan, Indonesia and Thailand before reaffirming his commitment to the club.[6]

International career

In October 2013, Nakamura was selected for Japan U-17 national team for 2013 U-17 World Cup in UAE.[7] He played 3 matches.[8]
