⚽ Player Spotlight | Levi Leyva | Class of 2028

At Villarreal Las Vegas Academy, we are committed to developing student-athletes who excel both on the field and in the classroom. Today, we're proud to highlight Levi Leyva (Class of 2028) as he continues to establish himself as one of the top young attacking prospects in his class.

Levi is a true No. 9 with a natural instinct for scoring goals. A pure striker, he consistently creates high-quality scoring opportunities through intelligent movement, clinical finishing, and excellent positioning in and around the penalty area. His ability to time runs, attack space behind the defense, and remain composed in front of goal makes him a constant threat every time he steps onto the field.

Levi has also gained valuable experiences beyond league competition. He has previously trialed with the Colorado Rapids Academy and participated in Villarreal CF's Player Training Week in Spain, where he trained within Villarreal's professional academy environment alongside talented players from around the world. These experiences have further accelerated his development and exposed him to the demands of elite-level football.

Just as impressive as his performances on the pitch is his commitment in the classroom. Levi has earned a 4.24 weighted GPA, demonstrating the discipline, work ethic, and character that college coaches and professional academies value in student-athletes.

At Villarreal Las Vegas Academy, Levi continues to develop in a professional training environment modeled after Villarreal CF's methodology while competing against top domestic and international opposition.
