Schwabach, Bayern. The talented Canadian footballer Simone Filippone (19) has been signed to play for SC 04 Schwabach e.V. as part of Winter transfer market in Germany. Simone, who arrived Germany as part of the exclusive IFX University Program, spent the last few months of the past year playing for SV Burggrafenhof, one of our semi-pro soccer German clubs partners from the Kreisliga. Simone was invited to trial with Landesliga club SC 04 Schwabach, before the winter break and then invited again at the start of the second half of the season. The coach Alexander Maul liked what Simone had to offer and signed the right midfielder for the club.

Simone is a native of Quebec, Canada. His previous experience playing high level soccer was with AS Blainville (LSEQ League), the team to where he is planning go back to join to U21 AAA squad and continue pursuing his soccer career back home. As far Simone´s game we could say he has an accurate pass, he knows how to control tempo of the game and loves to keep the game simple. You can see him always being the first one back to defend.

  • Simone was invited to trial with Landesliga club SC 04 Schwabach, before the winter break and then invited again at the start of the second half of the season.

In Simone's own words, "playing in the Landesliga, with SC 04 Shwabach, has a higher level of physicality and speed but adjusting to it has made me improve upon my own skills." It’s never easy switching to a club midway through the season and moving up divisions takes time to break into their system and lineup. This kind of challenge has just pushed him to compete harder and harder and given him no choice other than to improve his soccer and get more a more exposure.

As far academics, Simone studies towards a Bachelor’s degree in International Management at the IFX partner German Business University school in Nürnberg.
