Interview

What makes you different?

My unique combination of athleticism and versatility sets me apart on the soccer field. Playing as both a winger on either side and a defensive midfielder, I can adapt to different roles and contribute in both attacking and defensive phases. My exceptional fitness level, with a VMA of 18.5, allows me to cover large distances at high intensity throughout the match, giving me an edge in pressing and creating opportunities. Additionally, my experience in competitive trail running, including a 49th place finish at the Mont Blanc race in 2024, has sharpened my endurance and mental toughness, enabling me to perform at a consistently high level in the most demanding situations.

Why do you want to play in the U.S college system?

The U.S. college system offers an exceptional balance of high-level education and elite soccer competition, which aligns perfectly with my goals. The opportunity to train with top coaches, compete against talented players, and improve my athletic and tactical skills excites me. Additionally, the U.S. system emphasizes athletic development while also providing excellent academic resources, which will help me grow both on and off the field. I believe playing soccer in the U.S. will push me to reach my full potential as a versatile player, while also preparing me for life beyond sports with a solid educational foundation.

Soccer and Life goals

My immediate goal is to continue developing as a soccer player, contributing to my future team’s success whether as a winger or a defensive midfielder. I want to make the most of my athletic strengths, such as my speed, endurance, and work rate, to impact games at a higher level. In the long term, I aspire to play soccer professionally, and I believe the U.S. college system will provide the ideal environment to pursue this dream. Beyond soccer, I aim to leverage my experiences, both on the field and from trail running competitions, to inspire others in sports and potentially pursue a career in sports performance or coaching, combining my passion for athletic excellence with leadership.
