Club career

Hara played junior football for AZ'86 Tokyo-Ome FC in Ome, Tokyo. He later played for the Funabashi Municipal High School Club in the Prince Takamado Cup Premier League before signing for J1 League club Albirex Niigata in September 2016.[2] Hara made his debut for Albirex on the opening day of the 2017 season against Sanfrecce Hiroshima.[3]

On 29 December 2022, he joined Swiss Super League side Grasshopper Club Zürich on loan with an option to buy.[4] He debuted in the first game following the winter break, in a 1–2 defeat to Young Boys, and was nominated to the starting lineup a week later in a 1–1 draw against FC Lugano. Unfortunately, on 1 February 2023, in a cup tie against FC Basel, his only third appearance for Grasshoppers, he dislocated his shoulder, ruling him out for over a month.[5][6]

On 25 May 2023, Grasshoppers announced that he would return to his parent club following the conclusion of the season.[7] He made a total twelve appearances and made five starting lineups.

International career

Hara has represented Japan U-20 national team.[8] He was a member of the Japan squad that won the 2016 AFC U-19 Championship.[9] In May 2017, he was elected Japan for 2017 U-20 World Cup. At this tournament, he played all 4 matches as defensive midfielder.

On May 24, 2019, Hara has been called by Japan's head coach Hajime Moriyasu to feature in the Copa América played in Brazil.[10] He made his debut on 17 June 2019 in the game against Chile, as a starter.[11]
