Career
Born in Kasukabe, Yamamoto debuted professionally already abroad in Europe with Rudar Pljevlja in the 2016–17 Montenegrin First League. He will play the following two seasons with another Montenegrin top-flight side, Petrovac. His successful adaptation to football in former-Yugoslavia made him come up on the radars of other teams from the region, which resulted in his move in summer 2019 to Serbian side Spartak Subotica.[1]
He scored the winning goal against Arema in Liga 1 match, which saw the Persebaya Surabaya defeats Arema in 2-3 in away game, ending the 23 years of winless streak against the Malang-based team.[2] The post-match however were overshadowed by a riot and stampede.
