Kaito Mizuta will most likely leave third division club Arminia Bielefeld. According to TM information, the Japanese, whose contract at the Alm expires in the summer, is about to move to Switzerland to FC Thun. The 24-year-old midfielder only came to Bielefeld from the second representative of 1. FSV Mainz 05 in 2023.
Last season, Mizuta was one of his team’s top performers with five goals and five assists in 28 appearances. In the current season, the flexible offensive player played 642 minutes in 16 games, in which he only started four times. After 18 match days, FC Thun is at the top of the second-tier Challenge League with 33 points and a three-point lead. With Mizuta, the return to the Super League should be successful after five years.
