From summer 2010, he became a regular goalkeeper under new manager Masahiro Wada.[4] and he played all 34 matches in 2011 season. However Vissel was relegated to J2 League at the end of 2012 season. In 2013, although he lost his position behind new player Kaito Yamamoto, he became a regular goalkeeper in June again and Vissel was promoted to J1 in a year. However he could not play many matches behind Yamamoto and Kim Seung-gyu from 2014.
