Blue United eFC Powered by Manchester City Renews Contracts with youxme and Tsakt for the 2025-2026 Season

Blue United Corporation is pleased to announce that its professional esports team, Blue United eFC powered by Manchester City, has renewed the contracts  of youxme (Shusei Mukasa) and Tsakt (Shota Sato) for the 2025-2026 season.

When working with highly individual-focused game titles like EA SPORTS FC, it’s important for players to train and improve together as a team to advance their individual skills and mindset. For the new season, BLU eFC will again compete with a two-player roster, the same as last year.

We are confident that these two leading Japanese players will contribute not only on the competitive stage but also to our club’s broader vision: driving the development and globalization of the Japanese sports business, with the goal of making  it one of the top industries in the world.

The two players will compete in the FC Pro 26 Open North Asia Qualifier, held online starting on September 22nd. With the support of our partner companies, we aim to sharpen our skills as a team and achieve success on the global stage.

We look forward to your support in the 2025-2026 season.

Player’s comments

Tsakt

“I’m happy to be able to re-sign with Blue United again. As one of Japan’s top players,  I hope to serve as a role model for everyone through my individual and team activities. This season, I will fight this season to become a player who can succeed not only in Japan but also on the world stage. I also look forward to engaging in various activities to showcase the the strengths of our team and appeal of Blue United eFC. Thank you for your continued support.”

” I have re-signed on for the FC26 season. This offseason, I took time to reflect on my three years competing with BLU eFC, especially on what I was doing when I performed at my best. I was doing well in the middle of last season, even getting my first individual championship, but I lost momentum toward the end. This season, I want to stay committed to my plan from start to last. I will continue to think, and grow in every way. Thank you for your support. ”

Our official team items are now available in the globally popular soccer game, “EA SPORTS FC™ 25”! We are proud to be the only esports team from Asia featured in the game. This is a great chance to get them, so be sure to check them out. Follow our journey and team updates on  the BLU eFC official X account !
