It’s not that they value them more, it’s all about networking.
Kids with a good support network tend to do better in the long term.
Saido Berahino and Ravel Morrison are two recent examples of careers ruined by tough upbringings and an inability to move beyond them.
Kids with parents who have footballing experience are at a massive advantage. They can help their child avoid any pitfalls and prepare them for what is coming.
It’s not fair, but life very rarely is.
The best private school in Liverpool is $8,000 per term? Are there five terms in a year?
Coming from means can give you a leg up but, maybe more than anywhere else in Football the cream rises to the top. You look at some of the best emerging English talents like Cole Palmer, Lewis Miley, Levi Colwill, Kobbie Mainoo, and Teden Mengi and I do not think any of them have former high-level footballers as parents
