Shoya Nakajima 中島 翔哉

Shoya Nakajima (中島 翔哉, Nakajima Shoya, born 23 August 1994) is a Japanese professional footballer who plays for Portuguese club Portimonense on loan from Porto and the Japan national team. Primarily a left winger, he has also played on the right flank and as a central second striker.

Club Career

On 27 August 2017, Nakajima moved abroad for the first time, signing a season-long loan with Portimonense S.C. of Portugal's Primeira Liga. After scoring 10 goals and as many assists in 32 total matches for the team from the Algarve, he signed a permanent deal in May 2018.

In February 2019, Nakajima joined Qatar Stars League side Al-Duhail SC for a reported transfer fee of €35 million. He played seven games for the eventual runners-up, and scored once in a 6–0 home win over Al Ahli SC on 28 February.

On 5 July 2019, FC Porto announced an agreement with Al-Duhail for the acquisition of Nakajima's sports rights, in a €12 million transfer fee (50% of the player economic rights). He signed a five-year contract, keeping him contractually linked until 30 June 2024, with an €80 million release clause.

Nakajima made his Porto debut on 13 August 2019 in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round away to FC Krasnodar, playing the full 90 minutes of a 3–2 loss that eliminated the team on the away goals rule. He scored his first goal on 19 December 2019, the only one of a home win over C.D. Santa Clara in the fifth round of the Taca de Portugal, his 17th appearance.

On 16 January 2021, Nakajima joined Al Ain FC of the UAE Pro League on a six-month loan deal including an optional €40 million transfer clause.
