Japanese media Daily Shinjo reported on the 31st that “Ito has been criminally charged with being a sex offender.”

He added, “It is suspected that Ito made two women, including the accuser, A, in her 20s, drink alcohol and then have sexual intercourse with them without their consent.”

According to the media, Mr A claimed to have been sexually assaulted by Ito in a hotel room in Osaka, Japan on the morning of June 21 last year.

Ito, who scored 13 goals in 54 international games, is a key offensive resource for the Japanese national team led by coach Hajime Moriyasu.

In this Asian Cup, he played in all three matches in Group D of the group stage.

Ito also announced his marriage through his social media (SNS) in 2021.
