Eventually moving on to Brooklyn Knights of USL in late 2009. At the age of 15 professional clubs started offering him contracts, initially he verbally committed to play college soccer at NC State.

Injury[edit]

In 2012 he was approached by the Italian Football Federation to join the Italy U21 side for a training camp based in Umbria, Italy.
