Young Ba’s Isikeli Sevanaia called up for Fiji national team training camp

The only 17-year-old goalkeeper Isikeli Sevanaia is one of the four goalkeepers called up by Fiji national team head coach Flemming Serritslev. The Ba shot-stopper impressed during the 2020 edition of the Battle of Giants and received a chance to impress to the new head coach in an one-week training spell.

Sevanaia is son of former Fiji national team goalkeeper – Isikeli Sevanaia senior – and has still a long to go to reach the milestone achieved by his father. The very young player certainly has what it takes to get to the national team as Serritslev is willing to bring new tallent to his team. The Ba goalkeeper defended three penalty kicks in the Battle of Giants semi-final against Rewa, but unfortuantely his side could not end up with a win.

Isikeli, Mitieli Naiviro and Abbu Zahid are the only three players from Ba that were called up by the Danish coach for this one-week training camp. You can see the full list of players selected by Serritslev by clicking here.
