Takayuki Suzuki (鈴木隆行 Suzuki Takayuki; born June 5, 1976 in Hitachi, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan) is a Japanese football player, currently playing for Yokohama F. Marinos. He played all four games at the 2002 World Cup, starting the first three and scoring in the 2-2 tie against Belgium. He is a no-nonsense physical player and was nicknamed the 'Japanese Blond Bomber' after his blond-dyed hair (the original blond bomber was legendary German striker Jürgen Klinsmann). Takayuki Suzuki had not scored for 1790 minutes/46 games consecutive, until he scored a couple of goals in a 11/4/06 Serbian Cup game against Radnički Niš as Red Star rolled to an easy 5-0 road victory. However, Suzuki's time in Serbia was a disappointment and his move back to J-League to join Yokohama F. Marinos was announced on January 19, 2007.[1]
