Playing career

[edit]

Uehara was born in Lima, Peru on July 21, 1969. He is a Japanese Peruvian and sansei (third-generation Japanese immigrant), with roots in Okinawa Prefecture. Uehara played for Deportivo AELU and Sporting Cristal in Peru until 1992. He moved to Japan in June 1992 and joined Urawa Reds. Although he played many matches in 1992, his opportunity to play decreased due to restrictions on foreign players from 1993. In 1994, he again made limited appearances due to injury. Uehara moved to the Japan Football League club Tosu Futures in 1996, before retiring at the end of the 1996 season.
