In the “Мy Football Journey ” section, we introduce our young players through their stories, honest, childlike, and full of love for the game.

We spoke with Noah Stumpf from the 2015 generation, who shared his football journey, what motivates him to train, and what his biggest dreams are.

When did you start playing football?

•  I started playing football when I was 3 but then I was still too young and didn’t really understand the concept of the sport so my parents decided to stop sending me to trainings. Then I started getting interested to the sport when I was 5 and asked my parents on my own if I can start football again, and since then I never stopped playing.

Why do you love football?

•  It challenges me and the fact that it doesn’t just involve physical activities (running and kicking) it also involves critical thinking.

Have you trained at another club?

• Yes, when I was in Kosovo I played for a club and then when we moved here to Skopje I started training at FK Vodno for almost 2 years and a half.

What do you like most about Villareal Masters Academy?

• The new friends that I have met and most especially our trainer Dame.
