    Probably Galatasaray gets request or invitation from US GS fanbase local groups.etc...
    Or, its a Galatasaray club new visional plan build ups schedule for opening new academy across to the world.

    They recently(2 years ago since) open a 2 Academy in Australia .

    Already They have few in Germany, UK, North Cyprus, etc...



    Who knows, maybe some day in the future Galatasaray can get help/support from theyr former cool player Brad in the US Galatasaray Soccer Academy.
    ;)

    This is a good option for US kids/teens talents to take theyr chance by bridge of this kind of soccer academy.


    ps:

    It seems Galatasaray serious in this prospect.

    A turkish soccer academy here? Actually that doesn't surprise me. There are at least four adult turkish clubs here in NYC. What surprised me more was that at least at the time, they had no Turkish youth teams in our junior soccer
    league.

    What further surprised me was at least at one of those adult clubs in NYC the club house rent was paid by the Turkish government.

    So I am wondering is this new Turkish academy in New Jersey being paid for by the Turkish government. I would not be surprised if it is.

    Thanks for the replay additions to the topic , nicklaino.


    Well, I heard Galatasaray officialy its a club org vision plan for theyr youth department since the new chairman arrived last season begin. They doing amazing job on the field out the field.
    They get(signed officialy) good request sponsporship from Nike,General Motors,Nikon,Daikin,THY,Opel,etc....

    They opened few academy at Australia,and other part of Europe.
    They do believe USA kids potential for sure. And there for They open official flag academy scholl.


    Galatasaray youth academy is one of the good academy in europe.
    In their country, Galatasaray,Bursaspor,Bucaspor,Trabzonspor ,Besiktas,Izmir clubs has got academy works.

    Recently Bucaspor did amazing work to introduce good talents to the theyr country.
    Galatasaray and Bursaspor are most org in the youth academy history.

    some names from galatasaray youth that i liked from old days to current ;
    Tugay Kerimoglu(blacburn rovers legend), Arda Turan ,Semih Kaya ,Emre Colak,Emre Belozoglu , Appiah(yeap the ex juventus midfielder)
    are good example from theyr youth works.


    Bursaspor recent sensation is name; Enes.
    The kid is following by ManU,Chelsea,ArsenalJuve etc almost every month two or three time scout view.


    overall;

    If I were kid ,I jump deeeply to the Galatasaray Academy in USA.
    Duo to theyr reputation in theyr history in the youth football and A team football success etc.

    Galatasaray is not a soccer club. Its a sports club ,that that born in the Galatasaray Lycee(oldest high school of the country ,from few century since).

    they run by intelligents and good pro's.
    the club developements and ambitions is huge.
    They do have classy business people at the club.

    Lastly, they have good youth coachs.
    Theyr youth academy in Florya Training Facilitys(in Istanbul) visitied almost every year from all over the world clubs,to see what lions doings etc.

    Barca,Ajax,BVB,Galatasaray,Bursaspor are doing good works since many years in this stage.


    To answer Your question ;

    This Academy will run by officialy Galatasaray sports club $ and stuffs etc.

    Hope this help.


    Cheers.

    Stallions is NOT a good organization, if they are at all involved with the administration of the NJ Stallions, something is rotten. This has been a trend in the NYC area - so far, Chelsea, Everton, Bolton, Atalanta, and others have "opened training academies" or "affiliated with teams". Not ONE program has set themselves apart, and the only benefit is drawing in suckers who want to pay money.

    Their "players" are a bunch of little kids as far as I can see:

    interesting, very interesting.
    Heard Galatasaray was also going to open some academies in Germany. They can use some decent wingers and fullbacks.

    I have an apartment in Berlin, Germany. When I am there the next time I will look into their academy system

    . I love the Turkish people. Coached a few Turkish players under 16 there fathers were very nice people. Most of there older young guys play on their adult teams here in Brooklyn and not on youth teams.

    I can't get good Italian food in Germany. But I found if you buy their Lasagna and scrape off their so called sauce. Then go to a Turkish restraunt and buy their tomato soup which is more like tomato sauce Italians call good tomato sauce tomato gravy. Well you take the Turkish tomato gravy and pure it on the lasagna you really got something there.

    Good news is I have a great Turkish restraunt right next to my building in Berlin and an Italian restraunt two blocks away. Plus my building has an elevator unheard of in my area. :)

    Incidently I get along with the Turkish people there a lot better then I get along with the Germans for the most part

    This is what happens when you buy your Italian food at an Indian owned Pizza/Chinese/Schnitzel delivery joint.
