Additionally, Tverskov says Mata is also interested in partnering with Ghana’s Right to Dream academy, which is close to FCN.
“We talked to Juan a lot. He has been really interested in everything about Right to Dream and San Diego. Marcus and I were already talking to him about the opportunity when he was training with Nordsjælland.
“We knew well there was something going on.
“After we have experienced him here in Farum, we know what he can contribute. Not only on the field, but also outside through its figure.
“It’s cool to have another familiar face to come over to.”
