Friday 4 June 2021, by
The Franco-Moroccan Neil El Aynaoui has just signed a three-year professional contract with the club that trained him. He will now play under the jersey of AS Nancy in Ligue 2.
19-year-old midfielder Neil El Aynaoui is entering the big leagues by signing a three-season contract with the professional elite of his training club, AS Nancy Lorraine (ASNL).
A childhood dream finally come true for the son of Younès El Aynaoui, a former tennis champion who was ranked 22nd in the world in 2003. "I started playing football in Spain in the small club of Gava, near Barcelona where we lived at the time, because it was easier for my father in his tennis career, with a large airport nearby," the player said in a statement to the press.
The club’s website also informs that Neil went through the Pôle Espoirs at the CREPS in Essey-lès-Nancy. He has gone through the stages with great ease and has great physical qualities allowing him to repeat high-intensity efforts.
