Goa: FC Goa have signed 18-year old midfielder Muhammad Nemil from the Reliance Foundations Youth Champs (RFYC) on a four-year deal. He has been one of the most exciting young prospects ever to have graduated from Academy’s first batch. 

The 18-year-old midfielder has been on the Gaur’s radar for some time and had also spent a successful training stint with the Developmental Team last season and is one of the brightest players to have graduated from the RFYC program, having joined them as a 13-year-old in 2015.

 

On his move, Nemil said, “I had the opportunity to play for a number of teams. However, FC Goa is a team I really like because of its philosophy of football and the encouragement it gives to promote youngsters. I have been in Spain for some time and gotten used to the style of play. It suits me perfectly to take the initiative and control the game via passing and movement. That’s what FC Goa is all about and I feel this is a dream fit.”

Nemil was sent to Spain last year to train with Marcet’s High-Performance Academy. The youngster will spend this season out on loan in Spain as a part of Gramanet’s U-18 set up, who play in the Juvenile Liga Nacional.
