Most players believe that football is controlled by contacts, agents, and politics.
They think the only way to move up is to “know someone”.
But the football world is much bigger than that.
There are thousands of players who got signed without a name, without an agent, without money, and without hype.
If you are ambitious and you don’t have a network — you need a different strategy, not a different dream.
YOU MUST BE WORTH SIGNING
Players often forget the most important rule in football:
Nobody builds a career from favors.
If you are not good enough to change games, no contact will save you.
If you are good enough, you only need the right moment.
Agents can open doors, but performance keeps them open.
DOMINATE YOUR LEVEL FIRST
You cannot skip steps.
If you don’t dominate your current league, your next league doesn’t want you.
A scout or coach must see a player who is “too good to stay where he is”.
Moving up is not about potential — it is about proof.
BE SEEN IN THE RIGHT MOMENTS
Most players want to be seen all the time.
Wrong idea.
Football is about being seen at the right time: trials, tournaments, friendly matches, showcases, pre-season, market windows.
If you understand the timing of football, you multiply your chances.
BUILD A FOOTBALL CV THAT SAYS “VALUE”
A football CV is not paper.
It is:
– minutes played
– position
– numbers
– highlights
– consistency
– coach references
– impact
Coaches don’t care about dreams. They care about value.
SEND THE RIGHT MATERIAL, NOT RANDOM FOOTAGE
Amateurs send 20-minute highlight videos with zero meaning.
Professionals send clips that show:
– strengths
– position-specific impact
– decisions
– end product
– tempo
– intelligence
If your video doesn’t show value in 40 seconds, nobody watches 10 minutes.
GO TO WHERE THE FOOTBALL MARKET NEEDS PLAYERS
Most young players stay in the same city or country forever.
But opportunity is geographic.
There are leagues and clubs that need:
– fast wingers
– athletic full-backs
– smart midfielders
– tall defenders
– goalscorers
You don’t move up where there is no demand.
TRIALS ARE NOT THE GOAL — THEY ARE THE TEST
Many players think the trial is the contract.
Wrong.
The trial is the exam.
If you don’t prepare for it months earlier, you fail.
Trials reward players who have already built themselves before arriving.
YOUR NAME DOESN’T MATTER — YOUR VALUE DOES
Football is not charity.
Clubs don’t sign names.
They sign solutions.
If you can solve their problems, they will sign you.
If you can’t, they won’t — no matter how much you want it.
NETWORKS ARE BUILT, NOT GIVEN
You don’t need 100 contacts.
You need 1 right one.
And that one comes from:
– tournaments
– trials
– showcases
– social media (used professionally)
– performances
Not from talking. From playing.
FINAL MESSAGE
If you don’t have contacts, an agent, or a name — good.
That means nothing is given to you.
Everything you get will be earned.
To move up in football you need three things:
value, visibility, and timing.
If you build value, create visibility, and respect timing, opportunities appear.
And when they appear — be ready.
