The Club World Cup is a competition in which each Champion from 6 continents will battle for the Top soccer club of the world. This year, it will be held in Morocco.
Tegoshi, who has taken office as the main caster for the second consecutive year, told his eagerness “I want to try hard to tell evreryone, including those who like soccer, or don’t really know the rules, or know very well about it, everyone, that ‘Club World Cup is a great competition’.”
Also, in today’s edition of Nittere TV show “PON!”, the staff asked Tegoshi to PR the competition doing a quick trick. Tegoshi replied “I’m a Johnny’s you know. I think my job is to make women go all “kyaah”… You want me to do this?”, but still did his PR, by singing “Club World Cup~♪ Make sure you watch it~♪” doing Nakashma Mika’s impression.
Last year, Tegoshi was also told to do this quick trick PR on “PON!” when he was announced to be the main caster of CWC, and did Kinki Kids’ Domoto Tsuyoshi impression. Promoting the competition with an impression two years in a row, he concluded “I also thought this last year, but is a Monomane (impression) PR really going to affect the audience? I’m not so sure (laugh)”, showing his big smile.
