“The football trainings are a whole new level compared to what I got in the US. My favorite part of it are the coaches. They’re approachable and will help you develop the best they know and can even if it takes a bit longer to get. In order for a player to develop really well coaches need to be great. My favorite part about the training are all the different technical drills we do. Overall the academy experience is amazing. It’s brought something new into my life. And I’m glad I took the opportunity to go to Europe”
