Daichi Kamada - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Creative in loss Kamada registered two shots (one on goal) and two chances created in Sunday's 3-1 defeat against Liverpool.

Impact Kamada worked throughout Sunday's loss to try and break down the backline, and while he was decently creative it just wasn't enough. He crafted a pair of chances and worked between the lines in the half-spaces Liverpool left open, but the finishing from the team was disappointing. In the end the whole performance was disappointing and keeps Palace in the bottom portion of the table.

One shot in loss Kamada had one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Kamada took one shot Saturday, the only shot his team managed to put on target in the loss. He also created one chance in the quiet attacking day thanks in part to Jean-Philippe Mateta's red card in the 13th minute. He contributed three clearances and one tackle before he was subbed off in the 88th minute for Will Hughes.

Gets scoring started for Palace Kamada scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-1 victory against Nottingham Forest.

Impact It took a little over 40 minutes but Kamada was able to get Palace on the board en route to a 3-1 win. The midfielder only took one shot, and he'll need more volume in UEL action against Lyon if he wants to be among the goals. Lyon have allowed just four goals through six Ligue 1 games in this campaign.

Unable to convert chances Kamada generated three shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Leeds United.

Impact Kamada found himself in several promising positions but was unable to turn Palace's attacking superiority into a goal, including a late header that narrowly missed the target. He was also denied a clear opportunity by Ethan Ampadu's well-timed challenge during the second half. Kamada remains a key creative presence with three assists through five Premier League appearances, despite failing to add another goal contribution Sunday.

SEPTEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Assists twice in 3-2 loss Kamada assisted twice to go with one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 3-2 defeat against Ipswich Town.

Impact Kamada assisted both Crystal Palace goals as they lost 3-2 to Ipswich through a late goal. He also assisted in the previous game to bring him to three assists for the season so far. He has created two chances in three of the four games he has played so far this season. This is a great improvement having failed to score or assist in either of his previous two seasons in the Premier League.

SEPTEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Assists in win Kamada assisted once to go with zero corners and two chances created in Saturday's 3-2 victory versus Fulham.

Impact Kamada recorded an assist and produced two key passes in Saturday's 3-2 win over Fulham. He's been a steady presence in Crystal Palace's midfield to start the season, balancing his contributions on both sides of the ball with four key passes, two successful dribbles, and seven tackles won through the first three Premier League matches.

SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

One shot Friday Kamada registered one shot (zero on goal) in Friday's 4-1 loss against Manchester City.

Impact Kamada was mainly used in the defense Friday as Palace struggled to see much work in the attack, only earning a shot compared to one interception, a clearance and five tackles in the defense. This comes as a second straight defensive outing from the midfielder, only with a shot, two chances created and three crosses in two games. After no goal contributions last season, Kamada could be tough to rely on in some formats.

AUGUST 28 • ROTOWIRE

Contributes at both ends Kamada generated four crosses (two accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-0 loss to Everton. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 30th minute.

Impact Kamada registered two chances created, four crosses, three tackles and one interception in Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Everton, combining creative involvement with defensive tracking work throughout a match where Crystal Palace's output was never in question despite the scoreline. The Japanese midfielder's versatility to operate across the midfield and contribute in both directions makes him one of coach Pierre Sage's most trusted options, and his combination of chance creation and defensive intensity will be central to Crystal Palace's ability to recover from a difficult opening day.

AUGUST 22 • ROTOWIRE

Reports to training Kamada has reported to training ahead of the 2026/27 Premier League season.

Impact Kamada spent the summer representing Japan at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where he was one of the standout players for a team that reached the Round of 32. Kamada figures to play an important role for Palace in 2026/27 as a creative hub in the middle of the park, but he won't have a lot of upside if he doesn't produce goals or assists on a steady basis.

JULY 31 • ROTOWIRE

Signs new Palace deal Kamada signed a contract extension with Crystal Palace through the summer of 2027, the club announced.

Impact Kamada remains with Palace after becoming an important figure since arriving from Lazio in 2024. The Japan international has made 89 appearances for the Eagles and played a key role in the club's FA Cup and UEFA Conference League triumphs, including a memorable goal in the Conference League semifinal against Shakhtar Donetsk. The 29-year-old midfielder has established himself as a reliable presence in central midfield while also earning strong support from the fanbase. Fresh off an impressive World Cup campaign with Japan, Kamada is expected to rejoin Palace later in preseason ahead of another demanding domestic and European schedule.

JULY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Contract expires at Palace Kamada became a free agent after his contract with Crystal Palace expired and was not renewed.

Impact Kamada leaves Crystal Palace after two seasons in England, having established himself as a regular contributor in midfield. The Japan international made 28 Premier League appearances during the 2025-26 campaign, including 22 starts, and finished his spell at the club with 62 appearances in the competition overall. At 29 years old, he brings a wealth of experience from top European leagues, having previously featured for Lazio and enjoyed successful spells in Germany. Kamada's versatility, technical quality and ability to operate in multiple midfield roles should make him an attractive option for clubs seeking an experienced playmaker ahead of the new season.

JULY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Minimal impact in loss Monday Kamada registered one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 2-1 loss versus Brazil. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 45th minute.

Impact Kamada had been one of Japan's most influential players in the group stage, scoring twice and creating four chances, but he was a non-factor in this contest. Kamada started all four games before this Round of 32 exit and was a creative hub, but his efforts weren't enough to prevent Brazil's comeback.

JUNE 29 • ROTOWIRE

Two chances created Kamada generated two crosses (two accurate) and two chances created in Thursday's 1-1 draw against Sweden.

Impact Kamada was decent in the midfield on Thursday as he recorded a 90-minute shift, notching two chances created and two crosses in the draw. However, he was unfortunately unable to make it a third straight game with a goal contribution, as he has two goals so far this tournament. He does remain a vital part of the midfield and should see numerous touches in the knockout stages.

JUNE 25 • ROTOWIRE

Nets opening goal Kamada recorded one goal on one shot in Saturday's 4-0 win over Tunisia.

Impact Kamada would start the action early in Saturday's contest, as he wasted no time giving Japan the lead with a fourth-minute goal. This is now two goals in two games for the Japanese midfielder, only having taken two shots all torunament. He has also added two chances created in his two appearances, although an assist is yet to come.
