Sagan Tosu: Fernando Torres announces move to Japan
Torres has revealed that he is to sign for Japanese club Sagan Tosu after leaving boyhood club Atlético Madrid this summer.

Atlético Madrid and Spain legend Fernando Torres has confirmed that he is to join Japanese club Sagan Tosu on a free transfer.
Torres chooses Japan over options in US, Australia
Having returned for a second spell at boyhood club Atlético in January 2015, Torres left Los Rojiblancos at the end of last season.

"I'm going to get a lot out of playing in Japan"
"Sagan Tosu were one of the first teams to show an interest in me," he said on Tuesday. "I'm grateful for their persistence and the confidence they've shown in me.
"I think I'm going to get a lot out of playing in Japan. I've always been treated phenomenally in Asia and Sagan Tosu have made a big effort [to sign me]."
