Coach's Words
Featured Evaluation
“I have followed Zecheriah Mukerem Kedir closely through the Addis Ababa Football Federation U17 competition and BNA, and he is one of the most complete young strikers I have seen at this level. As captain and number 10 for BNA U17, he led the line with maturity beyond his age and finished as the tournament's top scorer with 27 goals in 20 matches, helping his side to a runners-up finish and earning Man of the Match recognition along the way. His movement in the box, timing of runs, and composure in front of goal are already of a high standard, and he sets the tone for his teammates in training and on match day. I fully recommend Zecheriah for professional trials and academy programmes. Clubs looking for a hungry, intelligent centre forward with proven scoring output and leadership will find a player ready for the next level.”
