Floriana’s recruitment of young players continued on Wednesday after the Premier League club announced that they had signed wing back Adam Magri Overend.
The Malta U-21 international looked set to agree terms on a new contract with Sta Lucia FC but talks stalled and Floriana FC made an offer to the player which he accepted and put pen to paper on a three-year contract.
“Attacking right-back Adam Magri Overend has agreed terms to become a Floriana Football Club player as from season 2021/22,” the Premier League club said in a statement.
“The 21-year-old promising talent has chosen Floriana as the next step forward of his ambitious career following impressive performances in the Premier League with Santa Lucia.
“A product of Luxol St Andrews, Adam established himself with the U19 and U21 selections of the Malta National Team, and undoubtedly has an even brighter future ahead.
“Floriana Football Club considers Magri Overend’s profile as a perfect fit to the new technical project which is built on the professional development of motivated footballers for the club to reach its ambitious goals.”
