Nehemiah Fernandez-Veliz signs first professional contract

Paris Saint-Germain is delighted to announce the signature on a first professional contract of Nehemiah Fernandez-Veliz. The defender is now tied to the capital club until 30 June 2025.

Born in Stains (Seine-Saint-Denis), he joined the Rouge-et-Bleu's pre-Youth Academy a year earlier than his peers during the 2016/17 season. A member of the 2004 generation, the former AS Sarcelles player has climbed the ladder to establish himself with Paris Saint-Germain's U19 side.

A U18 France international, he played 16 U19 league games this season, as well as 5 in the UEFA Youth League and 3 in the Gambardella Cup. The young Parisian defender scored 3 goals in all competitions.

The club would like to congratulate Nehemiah on signing his first professional contract and hopes to see him continue to shine in the Paris Saint-Germain shirt.
