The Fussball Project's Way into European Football

"You Can Play Football in Europe"

This is a REAL chance for you to play football Overseas.

We offer two very possible and realistic ways to land a contract and fulfill a dream of playing european Football.

How to get these two options

The way to get yourself in Europe via our two highways are our Pre combines

.We will be hosting 8 pre combines all over the country in order to select (40-80) players for  our Final Showcase in NYC. By our math, once you make it though the pre combine in your region, you will have just about a 50% chance of getting into Europe through the two ways we set up. We are not like other placement agencies where we put all the pressure on this "once chance and thats all you will have in life". We want to play the numbers game so everyone is more relaxed in our showcase in order to play their best football. There is no need to do 8 stopovers every time you get the ball to impress 1 of the 4 coaches in attendance at other combines, we want to play the numbers game to maximize everyones chances to play in Europe. The more coaches and possibilities, the less stress on the need to impress every time you're on the ball. Just show up and do what you know how to do, no gimmicks, no added nonsense....Just play.

The Academy

We want to bridge the gap between the United States and Europe. We want to get your foot in the door to European Football and our Academy is just one of the ways we are able to do so. 

• Wait what? Academy? 

We are hosting the best out of contract players, Period. Our goal is to have up to 20 American players, housed in West Germany with the goal of signing a contract to play football in Europe. Each set of 20 players will have a 3 month stint in our housing set up where they will eat, sleep and breathe west german Football.

• Location

Located in the heart of West Germany, we decided to have our operation in the most dense football area in the world in regards to actual amount of neighboring clubs. Within 30 minutes by a slow car you will be in, Dusseldorf, Dortmund, Koln,(and so on) and within these cities, there is approximately 150 amateur and professional football clubs. Our academy will act as a team and play midweek and weekend games against these neighboring clubs with the hopes of impressing these clubs for trials and contracts during your stint. We know the hardest part about getting into a club in Europe is not physically being in Europe to show up to training at any of these clubs at the drop of a hat, without added pressure of housing or flights for these clubs. We are doing our best to solve this problem by having a group of players in the heart of German football.

• The Ideal scenario

20 of the best out of contract kids are housed at our facilities for 3 months. 2 meals a day are paid for and an in house professional coach runs training for the group each day. Each day there is an opportunity to be seen by neighboring clubs and local agents and each day there will be a chance to get signed. There will be many weeks, where we send an 11 to scrimmage a local german team during one of their practice on a Thursday in preparation for the weekend game. In this time, there will be a a chance to impress enough to be invited back to training and continue the process. Each day, our scouts will evaluate training and will send players around to our partner clubs for just more chances at signing a contract. In addition to our German connections and being within touching distance of hundreds of clubs, we will be taking trips to sweden, periodically in the 3months, for friendly matches and trainings for even more opportunities at exposure. The main point being, once you are In europe with The Fussball Project, the ball is firmly in your court.

Our Way...

From our experiences with many agencies, we have always thought there was an easier way to get players playing in Europe. Were cutting out all the fluff and stigma. Were not selling a Bundesliga trial, nor will we send you to the tundra, but we will be honest and we will get you to fertile ground that is proven in growing and allowing players to develop and continue their career. 

We know what the leagues are like in Europe first hand. We are embedded in them and will always be there to help your transition. We know its realistic and you don't need any agent telling you otherwise.

We are completely transparent and with everything upfront, you know where you are and know where everybody stands in agreements. As a player friendly agency
