Young Players: Who stood out in Matchday 23?
The theme of this week’s YPPOTW? Desperation, doggedness and a ‘by any means necessary’ attitude.
Nathan-Dylan Saliba, 16, played for CS Longueuil before joining the Academy in 2017. He also played with the Impact's U23 team. He was selected to represent Canada at the Danone Nations Cup in 2016, in Paris. Most recently, he was a member of the U15 national team at the Concacaf tournament in 2019.
“Nathan-Dylan can play any position in the midfield. He’s shown a very steady progression since joining the Academy. A complete player, he is an athlete capable of adapting to every situation, thanks to his winning mentality,” mentioned Impact Academy director Patrick Leduc.
