Shimizu S-Pulse on Tuesday formally unveiled Kazuaki Tasaka as the club’s new manager.
The 44-year-old joined S-Pulse on July 1 as part of the coaching team after leading Oita Trinita, and had served as the team’s acting manager following the recent dismissal of Katsumi Oenoki.
With Tasaka officially in charge, the club will now be looking to improve on their recent record and begin pulling away from the drop zone.
