2020 Toyota Cup C...Personal Statement
I am a strong, skillful, assertive, offensive-minded, center back. I’m confident on the ball and highly composed under pressure. My strengths are in aerial defending, pressure playing attackers, always looking for opportunities to lead as a playmaker, engaging midfielders and offensive line teammates with accurate passes. I am always looking for opportunities to contribute in attacking strategies at any set-plays. I defend/play best under pressure.
My goal is to play professional soccer in Canada, USA or Europe. I am interested in studying education, criminology or kinesiology under a soccer scholarship in Canada or USA. I hold a Canadian & Croatian citizenship. I am fluent in English & French.
