If u want to be a premiership footballer you'd better be really good.You need to contact the club or go to the stadium if you want them to know you exist.But if you can't put a ballIin the upper half of the net from just outside the 18 yard box,don't waste their time.Overall just work on your game everyday and make sure u know all the tricks needed to help the team win.

Dave Kitson who plays for Reading was never signed by a club as a youngster and stopped playing from the age of 17 to 20 while working as a shelf stacker in a supermarket. He then joined a pub team and played in defence for 18 months before signing for non-league Arlesy Town. He was then spotted by Milwall who offered him a contract, which fell through, and eventually went to Cambridge UTD as a striker.
In the 2003/4 season Steve Coppell signed him for Reading where he became one of the top strikers in the Championship in 2005/6. Next season he'll be playing for the mighty Reading FC in their first ever season in the Premiership. So the moral of the story is Dave Kitson is a genius........... oh, and you can always make it if you're good enough and work your testicles off.

You want my honest view. It is kind of late in my view - I mean look at the top footballers of today (you have to look at them if you want to be the best) They was playing from like 4-5 years old and playing in league and getting taken by teams. Cristiano Ronaldo born on the Island of Madeira far from the biggest club in Portugal Sporting he played as a kid and was getting seen. When you play football as a boy like 5 years old throughout the ranks your not thinking of money cos you play cos of the fun and joy as a kid but now at 17 people want to be a footballer cos of the potential £20,000+ a week salary which is all good but you have not got the same magic as the one that been doing it as a kid. Better of training to become a UFC fighter or a Boxer and bring a WBC or WBA title back to Britain cos we need more British fighters!

All the major teams have scouts, you'll need to be playing for a pretty good team though in a decent league. Your club will tell you about any scouts that may be about. If you impress them then you may be offered a trial. Basically it's all up to you. Ian Wright was 21 before he moved to the top flight.

You would need to contact a club telling them what your looking for or if you play for a local club get the manager to write to one and they will send a scout to look at you and if they think your good enough will arrange a trial for you.
