Yuto MURAMATSU continues with Ochsenhausen

Japanese extended his contract with German club until the end of 2017/18 season

 

The 20-year-old Japanese Yuto MURAMATSU, actual World No. 22 on the ITTF World ranking list, has extended his contract with German club TTF LIEBHERR Ochsenhausen until the end of 2017/18 season. This young, but well known defensive player, had 10-5 individual score in his debuting season in Bundesliga, while he has 4-2 in the Table Tennis Champions League Men.

 

Ochsenhausen`s President Kristijan PEJINOVIC stressed for the club`s website next:

“Of course that we are happy to be able to keep Yuto in Ochsenhausen for another season. I am glad that he has decided to have another year with us. He will continue to be part of the Liebherr Masters College and will be able to make progress in the TTF Ochsenhausen`s team. Our trainers are very satisfied with Yuto's development. He is one of the world's best defenders and enrichment for the team, even in training. The other players will have the opportunity to improve their game against defense for another year. As a team, he makes us more variable and unpredictable. He wants to grow with the team”.

 

Yuto MURAMATSU explains why he decided to stay one more year in the 2009 TTCLM runner-up:

“I feel very well here and have a lot of support from the club. I've noticed in the first year that it’s good for me to play here. I am gaining important experience, and it is a challenge in the Bundesliga and the Champions League, because you have to face very strong opponents against whom you have to give everything and also play tactically well. I am proud to be part of the Ochsenhausen team, and hope that our team will be successful next season and get the title”.
