Cypriot Full-back George is the latest Raptors signing. George featured in our first trial but was injured for the second round and has since trained with the first team. After impressing the coaches he was quickly signed-up. Welcome to the Raptors George!
Age: 25
Position: Full-Back
Country: Cyprus
Profession: Medical student at Charles University 1.LF
Favourite Team: Omonoia Nicosia AC. Its my hometown football club that I supported since I was a kid. It is a first division team that has the most supporters in the country and for that reason was given the nickname “the team of the people”.
Experience:
I started playing football when I was 10 at Omonoia’s academy. I stayed there for almost 6 years and played for all youth teams up until U17. At the age of 16 I tried my luck in a second division football team called Olympiakos Nicosia where I played in the U18 for almost 2 years. Then I played for a 4th league division team until I came to Prague where I’ve been playing for my university team for the last 4 years.
