Meet COACH DIEGO
​​​
"I am Diego Milessi, founder of MilessiSoccerPerformance. Originally from Montevideo, Uruguay, I've been in the USA for over two decades. Soccer has been a part of my life from a very young age—always with a ball at my feet, whether playing or coaching. My passion for the game is evident every time I step onto the field.
​
My playing career included time with the local team AFC Lightning in Fayetteville, GA, advancing to play for GA United at the age of 15. I later played in semi-pro leagues such as the USL2 and NPSL with teams like MOBA & Georgia Revolution. My collegiate soccer career flourished at Georgia Gwinnett College, where I was a team captain in my final season.
After obtaining my Coaching Grassroots License in 2019, I began my coaching career at AFC Lightning and further developed my personal coaching skills at Toca Soccer. The insights from these experiences shaped the foundation of MilessiSoccerPerformance, which I started in 2019. Today, MSP is more than just a training program; it's a promise of commitment, intensive training, and a personalized soccer journey, all conducted with relentless energy and passion."
