The real reasons Juventus hires Weston McKennie

A few weeks ago, Weston McKennie has been linked with different soccer teams in the European leagues such as Southampton or Hertha Berlin. But all of a sudden his path turned travelling to one of the huge teams in the world: FC Juventus. With a $3M loan and the possibility of buying him after it, McKennie transformed into the second most valuable US soccer player in the world. But his soccer virtues are not the only reason why the Vecchia Signora has chosen him..

McKennie is celebrating today his 23-year-old birthday. His position in pitch is midfielder. But this data does not really define him as a person. The simple private life and humble he has showed in these years are two of the criterias that finally took him into the big soccer stage.

A few months ago, he joined Tyler Adams and Christian Pulisic to help Feeding America. This action demonstrates that Juventus, not only signed a great player but also a great person which appreciate little things of life. "The area I live in is a little bit like Texas as there's a lot of farmland," he said. "I go walking with the dogs, play video games, watch movies and make TikTok's", admited McKennie in an interview with Bundesliga.com. McKennie is an example. And wants to take US soccer into its higher spot.
