I would like advice on how I can play soccer professionally. Is this the right forum to ask this in? I am 27 years old, I started playing soccer seriously late so I only played one semester of D3 and now I continue to improve and am on a PDL team. Though I got injured at the start of the season and since the PDL only goes 2 months long and there is really no time to recover. It is extremely frustrating for me to play here in the US as there is no system I can go through to show myself and get a chance. On the PDL team I play with guys who play on their national team, international pros, D1 players. I am a defender and have no fear of covering them I feel fine playing against them, and comfortable on the ball, and I feel I can do this professionally and keep improving. Do I need an agent? How can I get an agent? Does anyone here have contacts to put me a trial with a semi-professional team or professional team reserve squad to let me show myself? I train soccer as a professional and continue to improve. I can use some concrete advice on what steps to take now.
