Summary
I would like to think of myself as a committed and hardworking football player with a dream to catch of going professional and retiring my parents.
With 5-6 years of experience playing in different leagues and tournaments. I love the sport. Everyday I always look for training sessions and playing matches to exceptionally high standards. Works continuously to develop abilities, skills and best personal records to advance team. I love getting feedback from my coaches after every single training session so that I know what my strengths and weakness are, so that I can be better at my strengths and put in extra hours on my weakness.
