How to become a pro football / soccer player?

well its very hard to become pro trust me if i knew how i would happy. i love soccer been playing for 8 years now. i think you need to start with trying and join a club team and take it the next level get to premier, then provincial. if you can get to provincial then you can be scouted for universities in the states most likely if your good enough and show them why they should pick you and yes you can get scholarships . but other then playing for the university im not sure how you can become pro. but once you reach the level to play for universities im sure scouts for major league soccer look at people who play for the universities. as for playing in Europe thats even harder then the states because European football is so much different compare to how north americans play. they literally train every day for many hours and its a different style not that i am trying to discourage you but it will be harder to get signed for European football then American soccer. but you have to start somewhere good luck. keep training lots you will never know where you can get to until you try everything.
