The story

Kōki Ogawa is a Japanese striker best known for his prolific form in Japan's lower divisions and the Dutch Eredivisie, where he has been a consistent scorer for NEC Nijmegen since 2023. He made his senior Japan debut in 2019, scoring a hat-trick on his first appearance.

Ogawa spent five seasons at Júbilo Iwata from 2016, including a loan at Mito HollyHock, before joining Yokohama FC in 2021. His 2022 J2 League campaign was outstanding — 26 goals brought him the division's top-scorer award and MVP, and helped Yokohama FC challenge for promotion.

He moved to NEC Nijmegen initially on loan in 2023, earning a permanent deal in March 2024 after 31 appearances and 11 goals. He has since accumulated 50 appearances and 15 total goals for the club in the Eredivisie. Internationally, he scored a hat-trick on his senior Japan debut against Hong Kong in December 2019 and has since accrued 15 caps and 11 goals.
