Next Level U Statement
Hi, my name is Nikola.
I am highly interested in playing competitive soccer at a university while studying kinesiology, sports management, MBA, or science.
I am a 6’4″ central back who is calm on the ball and great in the air. I am a technical player who plays equally well with both feet. A defender with an extensive passing range and exceptional skill anticipation of the play can make quick recovery runs when transitioning to defensive play. I can contribute to my team with my strong knowledge, understanding of the game, and leadership skills on and off the field.
I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to connect with coaches through this portal and contribute to their teams’ pursuit of excellence. I look forward to the possibility of supporting your team’s championship aspirations.
