Strategic Move: Kevin Ituarte Makes His Summer Transfer to TSV Weißenburg U23

Kevin Ituarte, a talented midfielder from IFX Nürnberg, is making headlines this summer with his transfer to TSV 1860 Weißenburg U23. This move follows a successful tenure with ASV Veitsbronn (ASV), where Kevin showcased his abilities and made a significant impact. His upcoming season with Weißenburg U23 represents a new and exciting chapter in his football career. Kevin has also previously played for SC Großschwarzenlohe (SCG), where he began his journey in Germany.

A New Chapter in Kevin’s Soccer Journey

Kevin's path through the IFX Soccer Pro Year Germany program has been a defining one. After starting his journey with SCG — where he recorded 10 assists in just 12 matches — Kevin moved on to ASV Veitsbronn, further proving his abilities. His impressive performances there eventually earned him a spot with TSV Weißenburg U23. This transition promises fresh challenges and opportunities for continued growth. "I'm thrilled about joining TSV Weißenburg U23," Kevin said. "This move is a fantastic opportunity for me to continue developing and contributing to a new team."

Experience Across Multiple Clubs

During his time in Germany, Kevin has had the opportunity to represent three different clubs: SC Großschwarzenlohe, ASV Veitsbronn, and now TSV 1860 Weißenburg U23. Each club offered a unique environment that contributed to Kevin’s growth as a player. "My initial impressions at Weißenburg were impressive," Kevin shared. "The atmosphere reminded me of SCG — it was big, and everyone there was very welcoming. I had a good time at SCG, and I felt the same way when I visited the facility and met the team at TSV 1860 Weißenburg."

Growth Through Diverse Challenges

Playing for different clubs across various levels in Germany has been a unique and enriching experience for Kevin. He has learned valuable lessons from competing in different environments. "This journey has helped me become a better player," Kevin noted. "I’ve experienced the intensity of more competitive play and also shown my success in other settings. It didn’t matter what team I was with, every club I played for always aimed to be as competitive as possible. The mindset and goals were consistent across the board." He continued, "At higher levels, the play is faster, with everything being 1-2 touches and quick thinking. You must know what to do with the ball before you get it. In other settings, I’ve learned the importance of mastering the basics and showing my best every time because no spot is secure."

Leveraging the IFX Pro Year Germany Program

The IFX Pro Year Germany program has played a crucial role in Kevin’s development. With over 20 years of expertise, IFX offers a comprehensive support system that includes high-level soccer training, cultural immersion, and educational opportunities. Initially, participants like Kevin are enrolled in an intensive German language school. This component of the program is crucial for helping players adjust to life in Germany and communicate effectively both on and off the field. Kevin added, "The German Language School has helped to some extent, but I’ve advanced the most by talking and hanging out with friends and teammates."

Life in Nürnberg: A Blend of Football and Culture

The program also provides accommodations in shared apartments in Nürnberg, giving players like Kevin the chance to experience the city’s rich history and vibrant culture. Balancing soccer training with exploration of the local area has been an enriching experience for him. "Nürnberg is an amazing city," Kevin remarked. "The blend of historical charm and modern amenities makes it a wonderful place to live and play."

Tailored Club Placements and Expert Support

A standout feature of the IFX program is its personalized approach to club placements. Upon arrival in Germany, players undergo a thorough evaluation to ensure they are matched with a club that suits their level and potential. This tailored approach has proven effective, as evidenced by Kevin's smooth transition from SCG to ASV Veitsbronn, and now to TSV Weißenburg U23.

"IFX's support in finding the right club for me was exceptional," Kevin said. "It allowed me to focus on my development and perform at my best."

In addition to club placements, IFX handles all logistical aspects, including visa arrangements and international transfers, providing players with a seamless transition to their new environment.
