Along with MNS, SCOUT NOTES will be a staple of our weekly offerings. Dropping every Wednesday, I will be racking my brain and diving into the detail on all things youth football – the eye-catching talent making a name for himself, emerging trends in the game, transfer talk, and so on. Between myself and Jake, we think we offer a wicked one-two punch that covers all the analytical bases.
In this week's SCOUT NOTES:
- The next big breakthrough in French football
- A club going for promotion with a squad of loanees
- Why you need to take notice of Noah Nartey
- If you're good enough, you're old enough
- J.LEAGUE is back – here's why you should watch it
Enough waffling, let's get into the nitty gritty of it all. Read on to see the future.
