17-year-old Matteo Secondino is making promising strides with FK Teplice in the Czech Republic.

After scoring 20 goals last season for the club's under-17 team, the Grange native has been promoted to Teplice's main youth team at the U19 level for the season ahead.

Matteo's dad (Antonio) is Italian by birth, and his mum (Martin) is Czech.

He played previously with Benbulben FC and Ballinamallard Utd - and had academy spells with Finn Harps and Sligo Rovers.

Matteo spoke to Ocean FM Sport's Austin O'Callaghan, along with his dad Antonio, during a recent visit home to north Sligo.
