The men’s football in America is still in a nascent stage, but the country has produced some quality professionals who are brushing a mark in Europe
While most of the countries in the world are a great admirer of football, the U.S.A is not one of them. The country prefers to enjoy other sports such as basketball, baseball, and American football (rugby). While the country has seen considerable evolution in women’s football as the feminine side has earned four football World Cups to date, the men’s squad has failed to generate a jolt. Even female players from the U.S such as Megan Rapinoe has achieved the Ballon d’Or Féminin whereas the male counterpart has been dictated by Messi (Argentina) or Ronaldo (Portugal).
However, some male players have newly ascended to glory with their talent. We cannot call them the finest, but they are unquestionably stronger than what the world of football has seen so far. Most importantly, these players have been able to enter European football clubs, which is a powerful accomplishment.
Below, we have listed some top male football players from the U.S who are making a mark in European football.
