Japan's national team trained in Chiba on the 22nd, with Ritsu Doan stating that the team's goal of winning the FIFA World Cup 2030 remains unchanged. On that day, 29 players completed the training session, with the exception of defender Takehiro Tomiyasu, who was absent due to injury, and goalkeeper Zion Suzuki, who trained separately due to left-sided abdominal pain.

Ritsu Doan spoke during the national team's first activity following the FIFA World Cup in North and Central America: "Our goal of winning the FIFA World Cup will not change." Regarding the Asian Cup, which will begin next January, he said: "It will certainly be very challenging, but the style of play differs from the FIFA World Cup, so we need to adjust our mindset."

Ritsu Doan also spoke about his failed transfer to Saudi Pro League club Al-Ittihad this summer. After the deal collapsed at the last minute, he faced criticism on social media. Doan said: "I've thought about it probably more than 100 times compared to those criticizing me. Initially, I believed everything that needed to be resolved had been resolved."
