I had the opportunity to join a 2 month long camp for Manchester United in Denstone in 2015, where I got to learn from united coaches and had the opportunity to play against U-16 and U-18 teams such as Newcastle, Watford and Aston Villa. in 2017 I had the opportunity to go on a 2 month camp for Real Madrid and got to play against other U21 teams such as Sevilla and UD Las Palmas.

I am constantly active, always participate in intermural and play whenever I can on the street, on the beach and any available field around my area.
