Tomohiko Murayama (村山智彦, Murayama Tomohiko, born 22 August 1987 in Ichihara, Chiba) is a Japanese footballer who plays for Matsumoto Yamaga.
Youth career
[edit]In his youth, Murayama played for Mitsui Chiba SC, Jeff United Ichihara JR Youth Tatsumichi, and Municipal Funabashi High School.[1] It was during his first year playing for Municipal Funabashi Hugh School that he first trained to become a full time goal keeper.[2]
University
[edit]Murayama played for the Shizuoka Sangyo University SC while attending that university from 2005-2009.[1]
Professional career
[edit]Murayama joined Sagawa Shiga FC in 2010, and played for them for three seasons until the team suspended operations at the end of the 2012 season. Fortunately he was able to sign a contract with Matsumoto Yamaga FC for the 2013 season.[2] Murayama has played for Matsumoto ever since, except for on season in 2016 when he played for Shonan Bellmare.[1] Murayama’s 41 appearances in goal in the 2014 season strongly contributed to Matsumoto’s first promotion to the J1 League for the 2015 season.[2]
It was during his single season with Bellmare in 2016 that Murayama achieved his 100 J-League game milestone.[2] Murayama played his 200th J-League game on July 22, 2023, and Matsumoto Yamaga released a range of limited time memorabilia to commemorate this milestone.[3]
Controversy
[edit]After an incident in a 2021 game, where Murayama was kicked in the head by a Tochigi player during a save, he made comments on social media which some took to suggest that Tochigi coaches had asked the player involved to do this intentionally. This resulted in a back and forth between the various parties leading eventually to a round of apologies from all concerned.[4]
