THE TRUTH ABOUT BEING A PRO | advice for young players

Truth about being a professional footballer - advice for young player on how to become a pro. In this video professional footballers Will John and Tyler Back discuss what the realistic life of an average professional footballer is like. Many young players believe becoming a pro footballer is easy and their life is all about fast cars, girls and millions of dollars in paychecks - but in most cases that's not accurate at all. In this video you will hear hard facts of the struggle, dedication and sacrifice most people must be willing to do in order to reach their dream of becoming a professional footballer, and hopefully this video will give you a better understanding on how to become a pro player yourself - and what you should expect from the daily life as an average player. The key is to understand that not every professional football player earns millions of dollars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi and most professional players dont have sponsorship deals or any other fancy stuff for that matter - and some players wont even receive their salary for many months even though they are under a contract with a club. There are many things young players dont get to hear about the realistic side of being a professional footballer who is not a superstar like Cristiano Ronaldo - and hopefully this video will open your eyes and steer you in the right direction in regards to your expectations of playing football as a professional.

Absolutely love this video. Everything in it that Will and Tyler spoke of is 100% true for 90% of the professional players out there. What you see on social media and TV is far from the truth. So happy this message is being sent out by such big channels. Love it. Preach it.

When your love for the game is limitless, money, cars, houses don’t matter. All I want to do, is play football. I’m not doing it for money, for fame I’m doing it because I love it.

The best advice I've ever received: "Being good is not good enough"- Will John

[noohilbharatiya]

Imagine making it pro at 19 and getting acl injury and being ripped off the

Yep that's me

Here in Brazil everywhere you go, there will be kids playing football, and trust me, they do it really well. I’m 13, and I think I am good. I practice every single day. I just don’t think I am good enough. Literally every single kid here in my country have the dream of being football player, and I can’t imagine how many next ronaldinhos or Neymars there are around my country and I don’t think ill ever be that good


thanks for all the positive comments, guys

Moral of the story is....

You aren't getting no where if you don't have any connections to a club.

It’s hard to find an academy near me here in the United States and when my parents and I do find one we have to pay so much money that we don’t have and can’t afford anytime soon so idk what to do

[gimmychinotti]

listening to Americans talk about 'soccer' is like listening to Moroccans talk about ice hockey

[varshahande]

I am from India, whenever I say that I want be a pro footballer everyone says it, 's impossible but I know I can do this

[phantmx]

I'm still 15 and parents don't support me in football😢😢 But! I love football I love will john and won't stop till I become pro its not my dream its my goal now 😭😤😣 I will

[ezekielnduli]

I'm taking home the fact that passion and the urgency to leave a comfort zone are imparative motivating factors when chasing goals.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Im 16 and play mens football. When i was younger i was scouted by palace. I was to scared to go. But im happy what im doing now.

Im pretty much a self taught soccer player and when I got into my high school soccer team the truth from what he said cant be any more real. Being good isnt good enough. The coaches already knew many of the players so pretty much all of them are put at the top. I'm fine with it. You camt fight with history but I do want to play professionally not for the money. Hell if I could play pro but not getting payed good I'll do it. Soccer is just something I cant leave. It's the one thing I can say I love with a passion I cant explain. Mark my words when I say I'll become something out of nothing. Wonder if anyone read this.

I really want to play soccer with other people but my family is too poor so I practice with my friends everday on abandoned Soccer field with a torn soccer ball
