Abneet Bharti (16), who has been part of the youth set-up at Spanish side Real Valladolid, is currently in Germany to train and gain experiences from four clubs of the German Bundesliga and 2nd Bundesliga.

Only seven months ago Abneet moved to Real Valladolid and he has a number of clubs throughout Europe monitoring his progress. Currently he is showing himself to Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt besides 2nd Bundesliga teams TSV 1860 München, SV Darmstadt 98 and FSV Frankfurt.

Abneet will be spending three days each with all the 2nd Division sides, while a scout from the Bundesliga side will be watching him throughout his stay.

At Valladolid, Abneet as a 16 year old junior has been training with the senior Under-19 youth team of the club.

FTMS Holding Pte Ltd, a Singapore based company, who also have two branches in India, have come forward with a sponsorship deal to help the young boy reach new heights.

Abneet landed in Germany last Sunday and joined TSV 1860 Munich on the next day. On Thursday, he flew to Frankfurt, where he is set to take part in the other three clubs’ training sessions.
