Shamrock Rovers Scoop Up Ireland U18 Star! Future's Bright?

Shamrock Rovers have bolstered their squad with the signing of Ireland Under-18 international defender, Egor Vassenin, from Klub Kildare. The move sees the talented teenager commit his future to the League of Ireland leaders, adding depth and potential to their ranks.

Vassenin: One for Now and the Future

Manager Stephen Bradley is clearly excited about the acquisition, describing Vassenin as "one for now but also the future." The 17-year-old has already been training with Rovers for the past six months, impressing Bradley and his coaching staff with his attributes and potential.

"Egor is someone that Glenn Cronin and I have seen quite regularly at Klub Kildare," Bradley explained. "We have a good relationship with Klub Kildare so as a result, Egor was able to come in and train with us for the last six months and he’s been excellent. He’s someone we really like and who we think has real potential."

Immediate Impact and Long-Term Growth

Vassenin is expected to go straight into the first-team squad, providing Bradley with options as Rovers compete in the League of Ireland, FAI Cup, and European competitions. His versatility as a left-sided defender and his impressive physical attributes make him a valuable asset.

Bradley also highlighted the importance of Vassenin learning from the more experienced defenders in the squad. "There’s nobody better to learn from, than these players who’ve done it for many years. So, as I said, he’s one for now but definitely one for the future of the club also."

Balancing Football and Education

Vassenin will be combining his training duties with Shamrock Rovers with his studies at CPC Kilcullen, where he is in his final year. This commitment to both football and education demonstrates his maturity and dedication.
