THE Azkals Development Academy (ADA), founded by former Azkals team captain Stephan Schröck, is proud to announce a groundbreaking partnership with Levante UD SAD, one of Spain’s premier professional football clubs, to redefine the future of youth football in the Philippines.
This collaboration represents a monumental step forward for developing young Filipino athletes aspiring to excel on the global football stage.
As the first major milestone of this partnership, Joshua Gabriel Moleje, a talented young ADA U15 footballer from Bacolod City, has been awarded a 100% scholarship to train at Levante UD in Valencia, Spain.
Moleje, currently a member of the UST Juniors Football Varsity and a U16 national team player, will kick off this collaboration by representing the Philippines on an international level and gaining invaluable experience in one of the world’s most competitive football environments.
This announcement comes on the heels of Azkals Development Academy U15 team’s impressive performance at the International Football Championships 2024 held in Bali, Indonesia, where the boys secured second place outplaying teams from Australia and Indonesia.
Moleje shone brightly in the tournament, earning the Best Forward Award, further cementing his status as one of the country’s brightest young talents.
“We are thrilled to partner with Levante UD, a club renowned for its excellence and passion for football. Together, we aim to uplift Filipino youth, providing them with the tools and opportunities to succeed on and off the field,” said Schrock.
