ĐÀ NẴNG — Toni Claveria, director of projects for Barcelona football school in Asia and Oceania (FCBEscola), paid a working visit to SHB Đà Nẵng to discuss constructing an academy in the central city.
A source from SHB Đà Nẵng said yesterday that a FCBEscola representative visited SHB Đà Nẵng’s football training centre and the new 20,000-seat Hòa Xuân Stadium and witnessed a SHB Đà Nẵng’s youth team training session in Liên Chiểu District.
