[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now, those same players, I would argue may not get the same opportunity in Europe if they were coming from MLS academies now, because the MLS academies are demanding money.  Why Cavan Sullivan is still at Philly Union.  And he is arguably one of our top talents WITH a European passport.  [/quote]

Great information.

If my goal then is to get to Europe and I have a European passport, does it actually make more sense to stay in P2P and move in a free versus dealing with a DCU in this current environment?  [/quote]

1000 percent yes.  If Europe is your goal, making that transition as easy as possible should also be the goal.  With DCU involved, it makes it more complicated because they will be involved in your transfer and they will make it harder and demand money from the target club.  The mission if you stay at P2P is to try to always find the fastest speed of play you can and the highest level possible.  Transferring to Europe from P2P is WAY easier than from DCU if your son is at the level. What DCU will never tell you. [/quote]

How many kids from non MLS clubs are transferring to (big) European clubs?[/quote]

Is success only Big European clubs? Are you a CEO of a Fortune 500 company?   I imagine, you still think you are successful, right, even though you might not be pinnacle elite?

Jumping to a big European club is not the path and it is why so many DCUM kids lose their spots in P2P.  They are not willing to fight their way up.  The path is to move to a small club, adapt to the culture, speed and technical ability and move upward within the European system.

Your kids are fuc&ed with how cynical and unimaginative some of you people are.

We know two American families in NJ who have trialed in Germany from non-MLS academies.  One got an offer.  The parents were using it as a gauge.

There are three sets of parents from the DMV with kids under 16 overseas.  There are ways around the visa requirements if you have financial means and stay under the radar.[/quote]

Doesn't sound like a transfer then[/quote]
