the American 19yo right-back Brayn Reynolds, currently playing for Dallas, is one of AS Roma’s transfer targets - other Italian clubs such as Juventus and Milan are also interested

because every single time an American gets a move some one like you pops up and says it is just a marketing move. pulisic mckennie and were also marketing moves. but Pulisic when healthy is Chelsea's best attacker and mckinnie right now is a locked on starter for juve scoring goals getting assist and creating quality chances. The fact is 10 years ago we changed our development system and now we are seeing the first wave of the products of that change. Nobody in America knows who reynolds is. But European scouts know that it is a new market to find good young talent. That is usually cheaper. It just happens that reynolds comes from the same academy as mckinnie and chis richards who is breaking through at Bayern and multiple teams want him so his price went higher then usual. But you do not know any of that. you just see American and assume the sport is at the same place it was 10 years ago and assume well it must be about marketing. So yeah it makes you silly. In truth it makes you uninformed and arrogant but the other poster is nicer then me
