Sasahara was born in Kagoshima on November 22, 1996. After graduating from high school, he joined J1 League club Sagan Tosu in 2015.

I have transferred from Albirex Niigata Singapore to DPMM FC of Brunei. It feels strange to be playing soccer as a foreign player, but I will do my best to contribute to the team with this responsibility at hand. I welcome your support!
