Heartland FC Kicks Off Pre-Season Preparations with Open Screening

In a bid to revamp their squad and regain their spot in the top tier of Nigerian football, Heartland FC, a Nigeria National League (NNL) outfit, has launched an open screening for relatively unknown players. The exercise, which began on Monday, is being conducted under the guidance of seasoned coaches.

The open screening, currently taking place at the practice pitch of the Dan Anyiam Stadium in Owerri, will run until Saturday. The selected players will then train alongside retained players and invited players for the second phase of the team’s preparation for the new season.

Heartland FC, known as the Naze Millionaires, suffered relegation from the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) last season. The club’s decision to hold an open screening is a clear indication of their commitment to rebuilding and improving their squad.

The open screening provides an opportunity for talented players to showcase their skills and potentially earn a spot in the team’s roster. For Heartland FC, this move is a strategic step towards reclaiming their spot in the NPFL and competing at the highest level.

As the team prepares for the new season, fans are eagerly anticipating the outcome of the open screening and the potential impact it will have on the team’s performance. With the exercise set to conclude on Saturday, all eyes will be on the selected players as they take the next step in their journey to become part of the Naze Millionaires’ squad.

Stay tuned for further updates on Heartland FC’s pre-season preparations and their quest to regain their spot in the NPFL.
