Most people who rely on the easy chances never make it, because they aren't good enough. Doesn't matter if you live in England, Antarctica or fucking China if you are good enough you will make a name for yourself, people will start talking about you and you will make it onto the big stage.

England is a country with an insane amount of competition. If you want to go pro, you have to put in lots of hard work which sometimes it may not be good enough as there are soo many talented players. Also in England the football is not as technical as in other countries like Spain and Germany but is more physical which means you’ll have work out. Basically you’ll have to manage your time really well.

Simon Atkinson it would still be challenging but not as challenging as a higher level. There is many players here that want to do what you want and go up the divisions which means that there will be a lot of competition but I think it’s a great idea and should definitely try it out

@minz1131

Simon Atkinson you can do both. Depending on the country you live in, teams from England will send scouts to watch matches and if you perform well, they could talk to you and come to watch you again and then asking to you if you’d like to come to England so they can scout you further in the English leagues. If you are good enough then they’ll sign you but you never know if there actually is going to be a scout in the first place. Also you could come to England yourself and go to free trials for teams and if your good they’ll call you back and possibly sign you. Both ways though are very difficult so I’d advise you start contacting scouts in your country to come watch you and go to trials in your country. If your country doesn’t have a good scouting system then you may need to go look elsewhere. Check out a KZread channel called “train effective” could be useful

You have opened my eyes oml thank you

Somehow I knew all of this but to organize this thoughts and convert it words you did a great job.

Everyone plays football in England.Even kids who generally aren't sporty at least play at break or lunch.Another the thing people don't take into account is that different areas of the country have varying levels of competition and skill needed to go pro.England may have 92 pro teams and quite a few semi-pro teams that pay well,but it's going to be hard to be recognised if you live in a rural area or if you are in a dense city.

Good one Matt!! The levels nowadays are really high everywhere!! I have tried in Russia and you could not imagine how many good players they have. The solution is to work harder to get on the competitive level. And yes lots of visa situation may rise. I tried in many countries in Europe and the visa thing was always an issue since they had limited places for foreigners players and besides that they need to pay for your visa and many teams are not willing to do that unless you are already an established pro player (famous). But we can never give up!

For us here in Brazil, the best country is Portugal, several players left here unknown and managed to reach great teams in Europe, and almost every team in the lower divisions has Brazilian players.

No offense to people who wanted to take a easy path towards your pro football career . It's good to play in a country in which you can get scouted easily but in my opinion if u start from a hard held scouting country even if u don't get selected you will in return get experience and then next time for sure when you give tryouts someone will scout you. (THIS IS JUST MY ADVICE) ANYWAYS GOODLUCK PROGRESSING IN YOUR CAREER DONT BACK DOWN. EVEN I WILL GIVE TRYOUTS HOPE WE GET SELECTED AND LETS MEET ON THE PITCH ONE DAY⚽❤️

I appreciate this 👏

Basics best leagues are in the UK. England has the conference and Scotland has the Highland and Lowland leagues. Best way to move up the leagues and to better teams is by starting at the bottom and making your way up. Promotion, worth ethic and goals will all show you are a potential player that could become a target in a few tiers above. I am currently trying to get a trial with Fort William FC, who are 30 odd miles away from me, and this season are bottom of the table with 0 points and conceded over 100 goals. I have messaged them via twitter to tell them I am willing to help them get a better finish next season, as I am a striker, but I feel my fitness isn't great for a 16 year old, and I have a constant pain in my left foot which feels like I've torn a massive patch of skin and muscle in it. But hopefully, they'll get back to me or I'll send them an E-Mail to make it more professional (cos usually you don't see someone asking Manchester fucking United for a trial over Twitter or Facebook. Hope I can actually get a trial. Sorry, I've drifted off track. You want to get into football? Join a low division team, recommendations: Highland/Lowland League (Scotland), Conference (England), or just try and attempt to get to one of those football schools
