Fans Obsession with young stars

Nothing gives you hope that your club is going to experience tremendous success than seeing a player for your team stand out in the game. Not only that's, ... he the youngest on the pitch. This is maybe a feeling Spain fans felt watching their sixteen-year-old winger score an outside the box finish in the Euros 2024 semifinal against France. With a performance that impressive at a young age, publicity fills the social media pages, and fans now have a jewel in their team to awe at. Great Business as well, considering he is a academy player that now has a staggering price tag on his head that was nonexistent just a year ago. A dream for any football fan, someone with young age and passion for the club that can outperform others on the pitch.

The hunt for the Next Big Thing

Every club's fans hope to see the day when the new academy prospect is secretly the regeneration of Messi. However, of course it rarely happens. For the biggest clubs in Europe, finding a young talent that can fit into the start eleven properly is a challenge within itself. Not only that but publicity and fame can ruin a young player quickly if not disciplined. On the pitch responsibly and performance might not resonate at a young age where the player is surrounded by more experienced players. When a young player fails to meet expectation of fans and the club it may feel like they have already ruined their Carrer, leaving them with little confidence with their next club. The pyschology of young players is intresting to say the least.
