Who’s Behind Goalman Dubai?
I’m Dan Holman, a former professional striker from the UK and the founder of Goalman – a coaching brand dedicated to helping attackers and goalscorers reach their potential.
As an Ex-professional footballer (played in the English system) and a UEFA-qualified coach, I have worked privately with players from academy level through to Premier League.
Over the last 10 years I have built an online coaching platform followed by over 300,000 players and parents worldwide, coached some of the best young attacking talents in the UK, helping them move from academy level towards first-team football.
I’ve moved to Dubai to build a small, elite environment for serious players who want the detail they’re not getting in their team training.
My job is simple: give your child the same level of detail, standards, and support I give to pros – adapted to their age and level.
Results With Players I’ve Worked With..
“Dan helped my son completely change his movement in the box. Within a few weeks he was getting on the end of far more chances – and scoring them.”
– Parent of 15-year-old attacker
“The level of detail in the finishing sessions is unreal. It’s exactly what players need if they want to move from ‘good’ to ‘top level’.”
– Championship-level player
“We saw a huge shift in his confidence and speed off the mark in games. It’s not just drills – it’s tailored to what he actually does in matches.”
– Parent of 13-year-old winger
Common Questions From Dubai Parents
My child already trains a lot with their team – is this too much?
Most players in Dubai train frequently, but they rarely get specialist attacking and finishing detail. Goalman sessions are built to complement team training – not replace it – so your child gets the final-third work they’re missing.
Do they have to be an academy player?
No. They just need to be serious and coachable. Some players will already be at academy level; others will be ambitious club or school players who want to catch up.
How big are the groups?
Small. Typically 8–12 players per group, so we can coach properly, correct, and tailor the work to what each player needs.
