Taichi Hara, who is currently playing for Kyoto Sanga, has attracted the interest of several clubs in Scotland owing to his impressive performance in recent games. Over the last six matches, he has scored four goals and provided two assists, contributing to Kyoto Sanga's four victories, one draw, and one loss. His strong performances have led to speculation about a potential return to Europe, specifically to Scotland, during the upcoming winter transfer window. The interest in him is partly fueled by the trend of 'Japanization' at Celtic, a Scottish club that has multiple Japanese players, making Scotland an appealing market for Japanese players.
