Haruki Umemura (梅村 晴貴, Umemura Haruki, born May 14, 1995 in Shizuoka) is a Japanese football player.[1] He played for FC Maruyasu Okazaki and Kataller Toyama.
Youth career
[edit]Umemura played for the Shizuoka based Jubilo Iwata youth team.[2] At the national level he played for Japan in the SBS Cup International Youth Soccer tournaments in 2012 and 2013, scoring two goals in the 2013 tournament, one each against Uruguay and Russia.[3]
At the end of Umemura’s first year at high school, he was registered as a youth player eligible to also play for Jubilo’s senior team. He had intended to sign with Jubilo once he graduated from high school, but a senior contract was not forthcoming.[4]
Professional career
[edit]Instead, Umemura joined to Kataller Toyama in 2014.[5] However, a dislocated shoulder put an early end to his season, as he required half a year to recover.[4]
In July 2015, he moved to Maruyasu Okazaki.
Further injury
[edit]In 2016, Umemura returned to Kataller Toyama, however, after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury in a practice match against Kanazawa, he was forced to take time off for surgery and rehabilitation.[6]
Final season
[edit]Umemura played no games for Toyama during the 2016 and 2017 seasons, and moved to FC Maruyasu Okazaki once more for the 2018 season. He played 7 games and retired at the end of the 2018 season, citing ongoing injury worries.

Post football career
[edit]After retiring from football, Umemura started looking for jobs in football coaching or management,[8] and eventually remained at Okazaki as a staff member.[9] However, Umemura had earlier been asked by his wife’s family to take over as the priest of Rinnyūji Temple in Shimada city, Shizuoka, which had been passed down through their family.[10] In 2023, he announced that he had successfully passed the two years of training needed to become a priest,[9] and taken up duties at the temple, and is now serving as deputy abbot.[8] In order to inherit the temple, he took his wife’s family name, Goto, and is now known as Haruki Goto.[8]
