Hello, I am Nicolas Linaje and I am originally from Mexico, I'm the first member of my family that is going through this process of getting recruited, I got in U.S in my freshman year, I would like to play in college not just because of the soccer part but also because of my studies too, naturally I play as center back but lately I have been playing right back because of my speed, some of my strengths are 1v1 defending, tackles, jump (headers), physical strength, through balls (long balls), velocity (sprints), and good technique with the ball, I have always played soccer, I started playing it since I was 5 years old, in Mexico I played for Rayados from Monterrey and Club America from Mexico City, soccer has opened a lot of opportunities for me, I have traveled to national games, regional games, etc. I used to play for Classics Elite ECNL and I'm currently playing for SA City ECNL , I am open to every college, I want to achieve my dream of playing in college and specially play soccer, the sport that makes me feel like myself.
