Brothers Juan and Daniel Endara are determined to go all the way to the very top with their Kent County League Division One West club Equinoccial, made up of players from every Central and South American country, bar Mexico.
And it’s fair to say they are ambitious too. Not only do they want to rise from Step 8 to the summit of Non-League but they also feel one day they can reach the pinnacle of English football, yes, the Premier League. Are they serious?
“Yes, in five years we want to get at least into Step 4 and in 20 years we’ll definitely be in the National League, that’s the target, and hopefully from then on we’ll get to the Premier League,” insists club director Daniel.
“If we won the Lottery, we’d probably be pushing to be in the Premier League in the next ten years. We just believe in and know the level and quality of the players we have. With dedicating real money we know we can push forward drastically.
“There are plenty of other South American players who want to play for us but they all want to be paid, some kids coming through the ranks who want us to pay for their education in order to do so. At the moment, we don’t have the money to take the top, top talent. If we did, we’d buy a ground tomorrow and off we go.”
