Career

After spending his youth career with both Júbilo Iwata and Momoyama Gakuin University, Kitagawa joined V-Varen Nagasaki of the J. League Division 2 in 2015.[1] He made his professional debut for the club on 10 October 2015 against Ehime. He came on as a 67th-minute substitute for Hiroshi Azuma and earned a yellow card just three minutes in as V-Varen Nagasaki drew the match 0–0.[2] Kitagawa then scored his first professional goal for V-Varen Nagasaki on 1 November against Omiya Ardija. However, his 72nd-minute goal only proved to be a consolation goal as Nagasaki fell 2–1.[3]
