Hamano joins Japan squad

Maika Hamano has been called up by Japan for the next in their series of summer matches.

The forward has been included in Japan's squad to face Spain in a friendly in Leganes on Friday 27 June, with kick-off at 8pm UK time.

Hamano has already featured for her country in friendly action twice this summer, starting their 3-1 defeat to Brazil in Sao Paulo on 30 May, before coming off the bench in a 2-1 loss to the same opponents in a rematch three days later.

Like the majority of Japan's European-based players, Hamano will not remain with the squad for July's East Asian Championship in South Korea.
