Yesterday was PSG's final match against Chivas. They won 2-1, with Weah notching both goals. The result meant PSG finished in seventh place and Chivas in eighth (last).
He seems to be progressing nicely. With the recent massive influx of cash to PSG have they been promoting much (if at all) from their academy? Just curious as I don't follow them other than their Champions League matches. Regardless - seems like he is projecting as a top-4 league player as of right now.
Per Wiki, they have 10 academy grads in their first team squad. They've played in a combined 151 league games, and the oldest among the group is 23 years old. With how much better PSG is than most of the French league, I'd imagine they have a lot of opportunities to give promising young players time in Ligue 1. My takeaway would be that, if the talent's there, a player will get chances.
US U-17 callup for the Torneo de Naciones in Mexico City. Looks to be mostly the same squad as the one that trained in Utah. http://www.soccerwire.com/news/nt/i...-roster-named-for-torneo-de-naciones/?loc=psw
Involved in a little scuffle with Qatar, though no fault of his own. Some pushing at the end of the half as a Qatar defender tries to trip Tim Weah while he is walking off the field pic.twitter.com/90Rm1HB2Y6— J.R. Eskilson (@JREskilson) August 26, 2016
Anyone have the info on how his dad ended up in the United States ?American wifey? I don't remember him playing in MLS.
On Sunday Weah scored a goal, described as "a splendid shot from outside the box", in the Paris derby as PSG beat Paris FC 2-3. http://www.lestitisdupsg.fr/2ju17-paris-fc-psg-2-3-1-1-la-bande-a-weah-remet-les-pendules-a-lheure/
