Um bull shite. Link? I said one of the few. Meaning outside Julian green and Christian pulisic it's not common. Especially not plausible for adorree Jackson.

Going pro doesn't have to mean the travel squad for Barcelona.

Old article, but an example of what I mean.

For an example that wasn't the coach's son

You understand that most of the kids in the development programs for foreign clubs are technically pros, correct?

They have contracts and are paid to play. They get those contracts as early as 13 or 14, in some cases. I had to look it up to be sure, but at 16 they are officially allowed to be represented by an agent, and if they are signed with club before that the agent represents the parents until the kid is old enough.

The best way to think about youth soccer in other countries is the NBA D league for children.
