[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many of the PDA players are going pro at 16-17-18-19? The players at the European academies can sign anytime and start training full-time with professional players as soon as they sign. They don't have to worry about all the college recruiting BS.[/quote] That isn't necessarily true. Not every kid in an academy "makes it." Plenty are dropped from one or more academies. There are European and Latin American players who come to the U.S. to play and get an education. On the women's side you may have heard of Lucy Bronze and Rachel Daly. Both played collegiate soccer in America. In England, WSL players aren't making a lot of money. The lower level players even less or are part time players. It behooves them to get an education. A good number come to play in America for colleges. They have to be recruited. They can't just show up and say "Here I am. When do we start?"[/quote]
