We are delighted to announce yet another arrival at B1 Soccer Academy. This fresh recruit coming straight from Brazil will add himself to the B1 Family and bring his talent to the training fields every week. Welcome, Rafael!
We are very happy not only to add a new player to our academy but also to continue expanding the number of countries and nationalities that have been part of our little family.
Rafael, who plays as a midfielder, is born in a family where football was more than welcome. His father was a huge football passionate and passed it on to Rafael who started playing football at his youngest age. At the age of 8, Rafael started playing seriously and started really enjoying the sport itself.
From there, the young talent started playing for several clubs in Sao Paolo, Brazil. Afterward, at the age of 16, he decided to move to Spain to take a shot at becoming a professional football player.
Moreover, outside of playing football, Rafael has several other hobbies such as playing ping pong and video games!
Get to know Rafael a bit more:
- Nationality: Brazil
- Position: Midfielder
- Favorite player: Lionel Messi
- Favorite team: FC Barcelona
- Long-term objective: to become a professional football player
Furthermore, Rafael chose B1 Soccer Academy because he feels that if he wants to try his best in the world of football he can do it here. He believes B1 can help him achieve new heights and put his trust in us for this upcoming season.
As a player, Rafael describes himself as an offensive one, who likes to dribble and gets past his opponents easily, but always trying to do the simplest thing. He believes his vision, ball control, and shooting are three of his best attributes as a player. On the other hand, he would like to work on his defending, communicating and head game during his time at B1.
Finally, he told us that he knows deep down that he can be a better player. We are really excited to start working with this young promising player and see where we can bring him!
Welcome to the B1 Family Rafael!
