Coach and Player

I first started playing football at the age of 4. My first team was a local side in Norway called Sandar IL where I spent 6 years before moving to the USA. There I begun playing for Carolina Rapids, a partner team with MLS club Colorado Rapids. During my time there I was scouted by U.S. Soccer and invited to train at the U.S. Soccer Talent ID Center, a player pool for the U.S. Youth National team.  

After 2 years in the USA I moved to England at the age of 13, where I started playing for Bournemouth Electric. Here I was scouted by The Academy Development Center in Bournemouth. I was honored to be invited to St. George’s Park, the training ground for the England national team. Where I got to train with youth national team coaches, along with a tour of the training facility and dressing rooms.

When I was 14 I moved to Sweden where my career continued at Helsingborgs IF. It was here that I recieved the majority of my football education and had the opportunity to train with quality players and receive a high standard of professional coaching. One of my best memories from my time at Helsingborgs IF was winning the u15 Swedish Championship and being crowned the best team in Sweden. I spent 6 years at Helsingbrgs IF.

I then had a brief spell of senior team football at Höganäs BK before signing for KSF Prespa Birlik in division 2 Sweden. During my time there I also begun coaching at World Elite Academy in Helsingborg. Where I had the opportunity to coach alongside and learn from Fahrudin and Eldin Karisik. Whom both played in Allsvenskan the highest level in Sweden. From there it was then decided to travel to Spain for a different life and a new direction in football. Where ForzaFalco Academy was born.
