Week in and week out, Luis Davin trains to be at the top of his game.
The 18-year-old, from Bromborough, Wirral, recalled he has been “kicking a ball as early as I could walk”. The teenager’s first memory of football dates back to when he was just three years old and since then he has been in love. Luis’ dedication has paid off as he heads to America in July for a four-year sports scholarship - which will see him gain a degree at the end.
The footballer told the ECHO: “It’s very satisfying to know my hard work is paying off, things feel as though they are slotting into place. There’s been a lot of hard work, long days and blood and sweat along the way. The scholarship is something I’m seriously excited about and just an opportunity to put in more work and prove myself in a different environment.”
