Get to know me…
I am a versatile and hardworking soccer player with a strong attacking mindset and a strategic approach to the game. My ability to adapt to different roles on the field allows me to contribute wherever the team needs, always with a focus on driving forward and creating opportunities. I pride myself on being a smart player, reading the game well and making impactful decisions under pressure. As a leader, I strive to inspire and motivate my teammates, pushing everyone to reach their full potential and work together towards success.
Declan's greatest strength is his eye for a pass. He sees opportunities most player don't. His movement is very good also. Declan finds pockets of space which make it extremely difficult to contain him. A highly technical, high quality, serious attacking threat. Lastly, Declan is a fantastic finisher. When he gets sight of goal he converts at an elite level.
