The United Soccer League Championship is the second highest level of soccer in the United States and it is quickly becoming a destination for young American talent to get professional minutes, in a mature league, against grown men. Major League Soccer territory rules are not player friendly. When a talented young player that has been “claimed” by an MLS academy does not get the opportunity that is optimal for their development from that MLS academy, the USL is becoming an attractive option. USL clubs have shown the willingness to give young players opportunities to play and now bigger leagues and bigger clubs are scouting USL with intent.
Who are the young players to know in USL?
