Japanese football club names, a thread. So I noticed that some Japanese clubs have foreign words in their names. It made me delve deeper into the subject and the fact is that it is a profound tradition. In this thread I will explain how and why regarding several clubs. 1/20

Love the ambition of ranking the 100 best club badges! Although I am a bit confused since crests hated by the clubs own supporters should not be on there. Such as Atlético Madrid for exemple. And I wonder how they missed these gems.
