The Victoria Falls Eagles have bolstered their attack with the signing of 15-year-old English striker Connor Reed, who arrives as part of a new wave of young international talent joining the club this season.

Fans in Victoria Falls have welcomed the arrivals enthusiastically, with many eager to see what the new generation can bring to the team’s attack.
With a blend of raw talent and ambition, Reed’s arrival signals the start of a new chapter. Not just for the young striker himself, but also for an Eagles side determined to shape its future around promising players from all corners of the world.
