We are thrilled to announce the signing of 19-year-old striker Zion Sylvester from Trinidadian club Harlem Strikers. Zion is an exciting young talent, and we are delighted to welcome him to Uprising FC.
Upon signing, Zion expressed his excitement about this new chapter in his career:
“I am very grateful for the opportunity to play football and do what I love away from my home in Trinidad. It will be a great experience to play on another Caribbean Island.”
When asked to describe himself as a player, Zion highlighted his adaptability, skill, and faith:
“I am a great listener and can adapt almost instantaneously. In addition to that, I am a skilful player, and most importantly, I do everything under the influence of God!”
We can't wait to see Zion showcase his talent in an Uprising FC shirt! Before wrapping up, he shared his aspirations for the future:
“I’m so happy to be part of such a great sport that allows me to meet new people, learn from new coaches, and expand my horizons internationally—and, one day, globally!”
We’re sure our fans will agree that Zion is a fantastic addition to the squad. Once again, a very warm welcome to him!
