The 71-year-old FIFA executive committee member said he does not look beyond seeing out the remaining two years of Inukai’s term.
“At my age I will be looking to retire in two years,” the former JFA vice president revealed.
“I'm surprised the job has suddenly come along but I was asked to step in,” he added.
Ogura will also be expected to find a new manager for the national team as Takeshi Okada resigned following Japan’s defeat to Paraguay on penalties in the round of 16 at this year’s South Africa World Cup.
