Yokohama F. Marinos Charity Auction
The highly anticipated charity auction, known as the "Yokohama F. Marinos Charity Auction for V・Varen Nagasaki's Nagura Takumi," is set to begin on October 29, 2025. This initiative aims to raise funds for Nagura Takumi, who is currently undergoing treatment for an illness, requiring a long-term absence from the field. The auction is organized by HATTRICK, operated by Valuence Japan Ltd., in collaboration with the Yokohama F. Marinos players' association.
About the Auction
This auction serves as a heartfelt initiative to create a support network that transcends club boundaries. The goal is to assist Nagura Takumi in his swift recovery and return to the game he loves. V・Varen Nagasaki, based in Nagasaki Prefecture, is a J2 League professional soccer club, and Nagura is an integral part of their team. In response to his situation, the players' association of Yokohama F. Marinos has stepped in to do their part, with the auction receiving full support from the athletes.
From October 29 to November 3, 2025, fans will have the opportunity to bid on exclusive items that were actually used by players, including signed uniforms, boots, and running shoes. All proceeds from this charity auction will be directed toward supporting the "14NAGU (ONE FOR NAGU) PROJECT," a program designed specifically to aid in Nagura's medical care.
A Message from Asahi Uechi
Asahi Uechi, the president of the Yokohama F. Marinos players' association, shared his thoughts: "Having played alongside Takumi for two years, I was compelled to contribute in any way possible. Our players have wholeheartedly joined this effort, making the auction a reality. We hope that the community will extend their support through this initiative. Your cooperation would mean a great deal to us. Thank you!"
