Team Vitality talent Ilian Bouchi has just been awarded the prize for Best Rookie of the Year at the eLigue 1 Awards by Uber Eats ceremony. Every season, this ceremony rewards the best players in the EA Sport FC 24 game, thanks to votes from fans, the league’s thirteen clubs, the media and casters.

Nominated in the “Best rookie”, “Most beautiful goal” and “MVP of the league” categories, Ilian managed to leave his mark in this first season! Known for his exceptional mechanics, the player who plays for his childhood club Lille had the opportunity to distinguish himself alongside player Corentin ‘Rocky’ Chevret and their coach Johann ‘Maniika’ Simon.

This well-deserved award is a real accolade for both the young player and Team Vitality. The club continues to reveal, support and develop the talent of young esport hopefuls. While always remaining at the cutting edge of performance, Team Vitality accompanies talents like Ilian to the very top of the competition.

“In his very first year on the professional scene, Ilian has shown the full extent of his talent” says Neo, co-founder and President of Team Vitality. “We’re very proud that Ilian has been able to take part in this competition. “We’re very proud that he has been rewarded so early in his career with such an honorary award”.

The young Frenchman’s next challenge will be to qualify for the Esports World Cup in Riyadh this summer. The qualification phases take place at the Dreamhack events in Dallas (USA) and Elmia (Sweden).
