The signing was announced together with Chris Wilkinson’s appointment as head of recruitment, following the men’s promotion to the 2. līga and the launch of Cēsis 2030.
I’m proud to join FK Cēsis at such an exciting time in the club’s history. I want to bring my experience, score goals, help the younger players develop and do everything I can to help FK Cēsis continue moving forward.
Combined with the signing of a player of Ēriks’ quality and experience, today represents another important step in our ambition to build one of the most successful football clubs in the Baltic region.
