Private: Emmanuel at Mifra

Those of you who've kept an eye on social media already know about Emmanuel's whereabouts. He's been in Spain, at Spanish Football Academy MIFRA. 

In all probability, Emmanuel (19) has chosen to do the 10 month Gap Year program of the Technical Sports Academy MIFRA in Zaragoza, Spain.

Court communicated his choice as "studying sports and languages at an academy abroad", which is in effect what he's doing. The language in question being Spanish. The sport, football.

My guess is he'll be joining a military academy in Belgium next year, but I could be wrong of course.
