New York City FC has a new academy director in Morten Grahn.
One of the newer academies in MLS, New York City FC has turned some pretty good results in a brief amount of time, sending players to the first team and to Europe. In the hiring of Morten Grahn, there is the hope that this pipeline of young talent will continue.
Grahn joins NYCFC’s academy with a good background in terms of player development. He was most recently the Head of Player Development at FC Copenhagen.
