Behind the Player - Charlotte FC homegrown Nimfasha Berchimas

After our initial release of the "Behind The Player" series featuring Julian Hall, we are excited to announce a new episode, showcasing one of the best young players in the nation. The "Behind the Player" series is dedicated to spotlighting emerging young talents, delving into their backgrounds and exploring the factors that have propelled them to their current positions at such a young age. While players are often acknowledged for their on-field skills, our goal is to unveil the personalities of these players beyond the pitch.

Nimfasha joined Charlotte FC from NC Fusion at just 12-years-old. Not only does he stand as the club's second ever homegrown signing, but also ranks as the 6th youngest signing in the entirety of MLS history, signing a first team deal at just 14 years and 268 days old.

His talent extends beyond the domestic scene, having represented the United States on the international stage with distinction. Playing for the U-17 squad at the FIFA World Cup, two years above his age group, he etched his name into the record books as the youngest American to compete in a youth world cup since 2003. He was also the United States top scorer with 3 goals throughout the tournament and a Man of the Match award to go along with his match vs. Korea Republic.

Nimfasha's remarkable journey from a promising young talent to a key player for both club and country showcases his exceptional skill, determination, and the bright future that lies ahead in his career.
