Before that, 16-year-old Shits was under the auspices of the Latvian club “Metta”.
As Girts Mihelsons, co-founder and general secretary of the Metta club, explained, Shit had an amateur contract and moved to the Parma youth academy, where he will represent the U-18 team.
“I wish him only good luck and endurance. Maybe he will be the first Latvian player to survive in one of the youth academies and become a professional in the same club. The path is not easy, but he had a desire to go through it from an early age,” Mihelsons explained. “It must be said that in some way it is good that Latvian club systems are able to prepare footballers for players of the A-level team youth academies.”
The football player, born in 2004, joined the Metta Academy at the age of nine, coming from JFC Skonto. The young footballer spent more than seven years at the Metta Academy.
The Parma adult team starts in the Italian Premier League, as does the U-18 team. Meanwhile, the Parma U-19 team participates in the Primavera 2a championship.
As part of “Metta”, Shits has won gold in the U-13 championship, as well as silver awards in the U-15 age group. This season the young footballer represented the U-16 and U-18 teams of the academy, as well as the “Metta” / “University of Latvia” unit.
“Metta” will play seven goals in U-16 ranks this season, two goals will be played in three games in U-18 team, and one goal in eight games in “Metta” / “University of Latvia” ranks.
“The first feelings in Italy are very positive, I live in an academy with five natural grass fields, one artificial turf, two gyms and an outdoor pool. I train with the U-19 once a week and with the U-18 team eight times a week. Yesterday was a friendly game against “Modena”, in which I also scored my first goal as “Parma”, “” Metta “quotes Shita as saying.
Since last year, the 16-year-old footballer has also represented the Latvian national team – the Latvian U-16 national team has scored four goals in four games, but the Latvian U-17 national team has scored one goal in two games, helping to win the Baltic Cup.
He went to both teams in the main line-up, as well as was the captain of the Latvian national team in the Baltic Cup tournament.
