Jun Endo (25, Angel City) of the Japanese women's national football team revealed her well-defined abs, captivating fans' attention.
Japan's 'Nichi' newspaper reported on the 17th that after Endo shared her recent updates via her social media (SNS), fans responded enthusiastically".
Recently, Endo posted her training sessions and daily life on her Instagram. The most eye-catching post was a selfie. In the photo, Endo, wearing a sports bra and pants, displayed a toned waistline achieved through rigorous self-management.
Fans poured out praise, saying 'Her abs are incredible', 'Her vertical muscles are clearly visible', 'Her stomach is incredibly flat', 'You can see her thorough self-discipline'.
Endo, known for her skill in making side breakthroughs, is a versatile player who handles both defensive and offensive roles from the left flank while also possessing strong scoring ability. Having progressed through elite youth pathways including the U-17 and U-20 teams, she is a key defender for Nadeshiko Japan, having competed in the Women's World Cup and Olympic Games.
However, after suffering a serious injury—a tear of the anterior cruciate ligament in February 2024—she has been away from the national team. Although she has returned to full fitness with her club team, Angel City, she has yet to be called up again for the national squad.

Despite this, she recently demonstrated her strong loyalty by personally visiting the stadium to cheer for her teammates. On the 12th, Japan, under the interim leadership of new coach Michihisa Kano, lost 1-2 in a friendly match against the United States on their U.S. tour. Endo, who resides in Los Angeles, flew one hour by plane to San Jose and warmly greeted her national team teammates after the match.
Notably, Endo's bold fashion choice at the stadium that day sparked significant buzz. She wore a crop top that exposed her navel, paired with a flashy hat, showcasing a daring style that even surprised her teammates. Japan's 'AbeMa Times' reported "At first, I thought she was a female rapper. 'Endo, known as the Lady Gaga of women's football'".
Endo, who has also attracted attention for her dynamic activities off the field, recently drew focus with her meeting with 'South Korean national team captain' Son Heung-min. Last month, she shared a selfie taken with Son after watching a Los Angeles FC home game he played in, which became a hot topic.
