Based on a quick skim, he's scouting several age groups and not only American players. Matthias Hamann: Danke. Ich werde für die Eintracht in den USA und England scouten und da vornehmlich in den Altersstufen U23 und U18. Meine erste Dienstreise beginnt heute. Sie führt mich nach Chicago. Ich werde fünf MLS-Spiele sehen und ab dem 8. Juli noch drei Partien der US-Nationalmannschaft. https://www.hna.de/kassel/matthias-hamann-fliegt-scout-frankfurt-8447124.html Hamann was a scout for Klinsmann and had a long career in Germany. His brother Didi was a star for Germany and other teams.
I think a better schedule would be to attend US knockout games where they'll get tested and then the MLS matches when players will have returned from international duty. But beggars can't be choosers I guess. I hope Roldan and Hamid are playing! It's about time Hamid finally makes the transition. He needs this sort of opportunity internationally to make the bridge. And I think Roldan is the type of player Germans would like because of his versatility and ability to play total football that they reinvented.
smart move by frankfurt...imo, the us market is undervalued in relation to the world market for players.
