Hajime Moriyasu (森保 一) is a Japanese football manager and former player who is the manager of the Japan national football team.
He made more than 250 appearances in 14 years with Sanfrecce Hiroshima, including a year on loan to Kyoto Purple Sanga, before spending his final season as a professional with Vegalta Sendai.
He was capped 35 times for the Japan national team.
His brother Hiroshi and his sons Shohei and Keigo have also been footballers.
Moriyasu was educated at and played for Nagasaki Nihon University High School.
After finishing his school, he joined Japan Soccer League side Mazda in 1987.
New manager Hans Ooft rated him highly and established him as an anchoring midfielder in the team.
In April 1990, Moriyasu had a trial at Manchester United.
Ooft became the national coach of Japan national team in 1992.
Ooft called up and played Moriyasu for his first match in charge against Argentina held on 31 May 1992 at the Tokyo National Stadium.
Moriyasu was still a low-profile player at that time and many international teammates did not know how to pronounce his name.
What Ooft asked him to do throughout his reign was a simple task, to "win the ball and pass it to playmaker Ruy Ramos".
He was a member of the Japan team that won the 1992 Asian Cup and played all of Japan's games except the final against Saudi Arabia for which he was ineligible due to suspension.
He was capped 35 times between 1992 and 1996.
When Japan's first ever professional league, J.League, started in 1993, Mazda was transformed to Sanfrecce Hiroshima for whom he continued to play.
Together with Yahiro Kazama, he controlled Hiroshima's midfield and contributed to the club winning the second stage of the 1994 J1 League season.
Under Ooft, Japan progressed to the 1994 World Cup qualification for the 1994 World Cup.
Moriyasu was on the pitch when Japan's hopes to play in the finals were dashed by an injury-time Iraqi equaliser in the last qualifier, the match that the Japanese fans now refer to as the Agony of Doha.
He scored one goal for his country, in a friendly against Australia on 10 February 1996.
In 1998, Ooft became the manager of Kyoto Purple Sanga and recruited Moriyasu on a loan deal.

Moriyasu came back to Hiroshima for the 1999 season but find his opportunities to play gradually decreasing mainly because of young Kazuyuki Morisaki's challenge for the place.
