Schalke midfielder Weston McKennie has admitted that it is his dream to one day play in the Premier League at a side that consistently challenges for a place in Europe, while also recalling his comical introduction to football and detailing how he has been handling life in lockdown.
Snapped up from the youth ranks of FC Dallas in 2016, it took the 21-year-old just one season to break into the Bundesliga side's first team, making his debut from the bench in a 1-1 draw with Ingolstadt in May of 2017.
A combative presence in Schalke's engine room, McKennie has gone from strength to strength since making his breakthrough three years ago and he revealed his hope that his career trajectory will one day see him ply his trade in England's top tier.
