TORONTO — Growing up, Max Ferrari was told he was too small or too slow to excel at soccer. 'Not really talked about when I was younger, getting looked off a lot, I think, was a good thing in the end for me,' Ferrari said. 'It really pushed me.
"Not really talked about when I was younger, getting looked off a lot, I think, was a good thing in the end for me," Ferrari said."It really pushed me. It really showed me that I had to work even harder for what I wanted to achieve and that was always to be a professional footballer."
"It's an honour to reach that with my hometown club. Especially with the team I've been with since the start of my professional career," Ferrari said in an interview. "It was also just a pro team in my area. The stadium is only 30-40 minutes from my house so I was supporting local football like a lot of kids do now," Ferrari said."And it's special to see when I see them in the crowd. That was me in the first year."
"And he's still very young. He's eager to continue learning. He's a very educated boy. And of course on the pitch, he gives us more and more every time. So we're very happy to have him at York." Ferrari also learned under former coach Martin Nash, who followed Brennan. He is now on his third coach in Mora, who succeeded Nash in early June.
Of Ferrari's 99 York games to date, 93 have come in CPL play with another six in the Canadian Championship. He has pretty much been a constant in the lineup since the 2021 season, save 2022 when injuries restricted him to just 14 games.
