Top coaches from UK-based FCV International Football Academy are expected in Nigeria for the 2nd FCV Gladiator Camp with the sole aim of identifying talents among students at the one-week clinic taking place at Grange School, Lagos from April 1 to 5.

According to Head of Marketing at FCV Academy, Sam Nicholls, outstanding players will be selected for scholarships at the academy in the UK.

On the gains of the camp, Nicholls added, “Nigerian students participating in the camp will get the opportunity to develop their football skills and techniques under the guidance of our UEFA qualified coaches, as well as gain tactical knowledge and awareness that will allow them to take their game to the next level.
