    So it looks like these 2 threads should be merged and the product located in Academy. Correct?

    Turns 18 in 4 days. Will be interesting to see if he signs a pro contract with Schalke.

    That seems like a certainty, if he can play right away is the next question.

    It was mentioned by Schalke fans on a few of their forums that he's supposed to debut next week.

    I forgot what thread I was in, assumed you were talking about Wright or McKinnie and got way too excited.

    And by debut, I'm sure he meant an official debut with Schalke's U-19 side. That's going to be fun, seeing 3 Americans on the team at the same time!

    At this point, it would be really weird if he didn't sign with Schalke.

    He's signing with Schalke. Only way he doesn't is barring some last minute problem.

    He's pictured in training with Schalke every day, and he shows up to all the games in his Schalke gear.

    Here are two pictures of him from yesterday at the U-19 game (kid next to him is Haji's brother who's likely to sign in April).

    I'd love to know how he got around the registration window rules.

    Maybe the Railhawks paid him $20 for passing through and it qualified as a pro contract.

    That's the strongest hypothesis, I think.

    Does anyone else find it strange that there has been no official announcement that they've signed him?

    And they lost 2-0. I couldn't find much info on any of three other than McKennie committed a foul that lead to the 2-0 goal from a free kick.
