Here are five amazing facts you never knew about Japan legend, who once finished top scorer ahead of Gary Lineker



Kazuyoshi Miura's new deal at the second division club will take him into his 33RD season.

He said: "I will always play my heart out and hope to continue to grow."
Only former New Brighton manager Neil McBain, who amazingly played himself in goal at the age of 51 due to an injury crisis, surpasses Miura's feat.
King Kazu began his career at Santos in 1986 and has gone on to play for 13 other clubs, including Genoa and Dinamo Zagreb.
He signed for Yokohama in 2005 - at the age of 38 - and has scored 23 goals in 243 outings.
