Fiji Football’s golden boy Roy Krishna has commended the efforts by Fiji Football on expanding the game of football in the northern division with the construction of the Labasa Football Academy.

“So glad that Fiji Football is setting up an academy in my hometown Labasa,” Krishna said on his social media platform Facebook.

Krishna had met up with Fiji Football president Rajesh Patel and executive members of the board in Labasa currently on tour in Macuata and Bua.

“So happy to get a quick brief about their future plans and current initiatives.

“I’m sure more young talents will be nurtured and groomed through this initiative and can expect to see more Fijians making a name in the world of football.”

The Labasa Football Academy is a $5.5 million dollar project and expected to be near completion by December.
