“Eagles Football Academy was born from my passion for football. On the 1st of June 2014, International Children’s Day, on a sunny day in London, I had my first coaching session with seven children. Out of them, three are still part of the academy among another 150. Initially, the academy was only for Romanian kids, but the Eagles spirit is for all children around the world, so now we have kids from other countries as well. We have two training grounds, in the north and east of London, several specialized trainers, and several won competitions. Our goal is that these kids will become professional athletes who will be a positive example for future children. This is my goal, to create great footballers, but not only that, great people too, as sport changes us. In the end, I just want all of them to smile back on the Eagles Academy days as they think back.”
