During a difficult year given the circumstances of the pandemic, he worked hard to train and maintain his form following his University spell in the United States. Tania registered for our 2021 Men's Pro Combine in Calgary and impressed after netting a few goals over the weekend.

Coquitlam, BC, Canada
Diego Gomez came from BC, Canada to attend our 2021 Men's Pro Combine in Calgary. He netted a few goals during our combine, and unfortunately picked up a small injury prior to the final match. However, he made enough of an impression for us to recommend him to Almuñecar City FC's academy in Almuñecar, Spain where he is continuing his development as a player.
