Coach Lio

Get to know the heart of Mondial Athletics

Born in France “Paris”, I grew up playing professionally in France and trained at one of the top soccer academies, Stade Rennais FC.

Unfortunately, knee injuries cut my playing career short, but they gave me invaluable experience—experience that I now passionately share with youth soccer players.
I have been coaching for over 10 years, bringing the European style of “football” with an emphasis on skills, technical ability, and true understanding of the game. My goal is to help players build a strong soccer foundation, while also developing the mindset, discipline, and competitiveness required to play at a high level.

I believe the earlier we instill players with the real values of the game, the faster their growth will be when learning from other coaches along their journey.
“Build a strong mindset and your legs will be strong.”

For me, soccer is more than just a sport—it’s a way to teach life lessons, build a successful mindset, and inspire perseverance and constant improvement.

A true “baller” is not only a great soccer player, but also a great person with strong values.
