FC Dallas Academy U15s for the 2022 Generation adidas Cup

Like the U17s, the FC Dallas U15 Academy team is taking part in the Generation adidas Cup instead of Dallas Cup.

Again, I don’t have an official roster for the GA Cup, so I’ll list the players I have who could be eligible and if I get the official roster I will come back make an edit.

This one will be much shorter than the U17s though, as the U15s is just a single year: 2007.

FC Dallas Academy U15s

Coach: Alex Aldaz

Bracket Unknown: But paired against Real Salt lake, Club Tijuana, and FC Cincinnati.

U15s is the first single-year team although they do sometimes have a single 2008 that plays up with them.

Who to Watch

Cayne Madhlangove – Outstanding right back, he draws attention and can get under the skin. Good range and gets forward to create a log of danger. I really like this player.

Jeyden Arboleda – Game to game the top influencer when I’ve scouted this team. The game changes when he comes in. Plays as an attacking mid or false 9 that I’ve seen. Undersized but terrific on the ball.

Michael Cortellessa – Ryan Hollingshead 2.0. A US U15 who can play pretty much anywhere on the field at a high level. High IQ player.

Bryce Outman – Phenomenal talent, but very tiny… and it’s doesn’t even matter. Terrific on the ball can wing, play attacking mids, or false-9.

Brice Miller – 2007, early maturer, scored bags of goals. The field is starting to catch up but still an excellent player used in multiple spots.

Zach Molomo – 2008, High striker. The one player who sometimes plays up as he has the size to compete in this age bracket. Big upside striker.
