Aryan specialises in predictions and National League content for The Real EFL and has been a member of the team since 2023.

Professional Background

Before joining The Real EFL, he ran his blog and has been writing about sports for over two years. He focuses on forecasting outcomes for all three EFL leagues and provides updates on player movements in the National League, particularly those involving Barnet FC.

Role at The Real EFL

Aryan provides in-depth analysis for EFL fixtures and reports on transfer developments within the National League. He has also written pre-match and post-match coverage, including managerial interviews.

In July 2024, he represented The Real EFL as a media correspondent at the Queens Park Rangers vs. Tottenham Hotspur preseason match. His game summary was published immediately after the final whistle, and he had the opportunity to speak with QPR manager Mart Cifuentes afterwards.

Certifications and Education

Aryan continues to develop his expertise in sports journalism through hands-on reporting and extensive football coverage. His commitment to delivering accurate forecasts and insightful updates has established him as a trusted voice in the football media landscape.

Personal Insights

He believes that sports have the power to unite communities and bring joy to people’s lives while also serving as a platform for discussion and debate. Football, in particular, fosters analysis, enabling fans to constructively assess player performances and club strategies, fuelling enthusiasm for the game.

He also recognises the ongoing transformations within the EFL. The struggle of recently promoted Championship clubs in the Premier League has highlighted concerns over the financial disparity between the first and second tiers. Additionally, the growing push for a “3 up, 3 down” promotion-relegation model between League Two and the National League could significantly reshape lower-league competition.
