Club career

[edit]

Borussia Mönchengladbach

[edit]

On 21 July 2011, Ōtsu was signed by Bundesliga side Borussia Mönchengladbach on a three-year contract.[1] He made his league debut on 22 October 2011, coming on as a late substitute for Mike Hanke,[2] in a 1–0 away defeat against 1899 Hoffenheim.[3]

VVV-Venlo

[edit]

After having lost prospect with Borussia Mönchengladbach, Ōtsu signed with Dutch Eredivisie side VVV-Venlo until the summer of 2014 on 31 August 2012.[4] He was supposed to succeed his countryman Keisuke Honda who had impressed and made a transfer to AC Milan half a year earlier. However, on 15 December 2013, Ōtsu badly injured his achilles tendon. After a long rehabilitation, Ōtsu became fit again and VVV-Venlo extended his expiring contract until the summer of 2015.[5]

Return to Kashiwa Reysol

[edit]

On 13 December 2014, it was announced that Otsu would leave VVV-Venlo in the winter transfer window. He had signed a deal with his former team Kashiwa Reysol.[6]

International career

[edit]

On 2 July 2012, Japan U23 manager Takashi Sekizuka included Ōtsu in the Japan under-23s for the 2012 Summer Olympics.[7] He made his debut in their opening match on 26 July 2012 against Spain at Hampden Park, Glasgow, where he scored the opening and winning goal.[8] He then went on to score in both Japan's quarter-final and semi-final against Egypt and Mexico respectively. On 31 January 2013, head coach Alberto Zaccheroni included Ōtsu in the Japan national team for a friendly against Latvia. On 6 February 2013, Ōtsu made his debut for the national team, replacing Shinji Okazaki in the 82nd minute.
