Emanuel Fio Simba - Aged 17 - Trial for Farnborough
17-year-old Emanuel Fio Simba was recently scouted at our one-day trial held at QPR’s training ground in West London on the 9th of April.
Able to play as either a centre midfielder or right back, Emanuel caught the eye of a scout from Farnborough at our event, earning him a trial for the semi-pro club.
When asked how he learned of his opportunity with the club, Emanuel told us:
“When I finished the trial with UK Football Trials, I got an email the same day asking me to come to Farnborough for a trial.”
After being introduced with the club, Emanuel was asked to attend a trial. Here’s what he said it consisted of: “On the 16th of April I went to Farnborough for the trial. We did drills and matches. It started off with a warm up, then we did some possession work which followed into a match.”
Impressed with what he experienced at Farnborough, Emanuel told us: “The facilities at Farnborough were good, it was big, and I’m not used to it yet. The coaching was also very professional, I think that it will help me in the future to develop as a player.”
Emanuel clearly impressed whilst at Farnborough, earning a place in the side during pre-season. He said: “After the trial I was selected to go back for pre-season training in July. I’m not sure when it starts but I was told they will be in contact.”
We would like to wish Emanuel the best of luck in the future. We will be following his progress with Farnborough and hope that he can play regular first team football and make a name for himself at the club.
