Sporting Clube de Goa's Shanon Viegas hopes to shine in Portugal

Sporting Clube de Goa midfielder Shanon Viegas will look to live his European dream following his one-year deal with Portuguese side Clube Desportivo dos Olivais e Moscavide.

The 18-year-old had two stints at the International Football Academy de Portugal (IFAPT) after which the move to the 2nd division club in the Associaco Futbol de Lisboa (AFL) got materialised.

Interestingly, the youngter's first visit to IFAPT in November 2018 after he had turned up for the India U-16 team at the 2018 AFC (Asian Football Confederation) U-16 Championship in Malaysia had also garnered interest from another team but Shanon was not of age to sign a contract then.
