Choose a national club or a school club that you can join on a regular basis. The best one is that it prepares young players to professionalism. Every city or region has their own team and they have their own progress. Although it is not possible to estimate the time, there are some things that you can do. Start to play football as younger as possible. There are young teams for the age groups of 5 and 14. Play as much as you can with your friends, adults or your family. Try to play with players who are older than you, so that you can progress more. Get training on a regular basis. Try to join young tournaments in your city. Join to training camps as early as possible. Get benefits from your club if they make summer camps or training camps. Therefore, you can learn a lot of things in a short time and benefit from other players’ competitiveness. Research about the progress programmes. Request some advice from your coach about what you can do. Soon or late, you will join university teams and become a player of a professional level team instead of amateur teams.

Becoming a professional player is a long process and you should develop technical skills, continue to learn football and most importantly, create your network. If you want to become the best, you should allocate time to practice at least 5 or 6 times a week. You should continue practicing without thinking about weather conditions. The daily practices will help you to improve your talents. 
As we have mentioned before, practice independently. Although you are not a member of a team, you should practice with your family or friends. Aim that you should improve your technical skills. Work with balls until you are comfortable and good at making the movements. Progress in your weakest skills until you nail them. Remember you are strong as your weakest chain. If you have a child who wants to become a football player, the level of generosity should be high. You will need to do a lot of things such as bringing your child to a match (international or in another city), purchasing football equipment, membership fees, becoming an assistant of a coach and increase your child’s morale.

- You may need to review your skill after you play for a while. Discover which position suits your gifted skills. Do not think about only yourself, consider also the adaptability of your skills to your team. In the end, you have to be good what you are doing, because the competition is high and the possibility of taking another chance is very low. Ask your coach to be honest to you and talk about your strongest and weakest points. Use his or her advice to improve your weakest points and your natural talents. Be the best player at your level. If you are not, make honest judgments to yourself or transfer into another position or stay at the amateur level. Prove that you are good and be consistent. You are in a good way if you prove that you are the pupil of the team.

Moreover, being in the center of attention of the public is also hard. If you do not prepare yourself, becoming on top can be though and it may cause depression and many other health issues as well.

You will have time to think about other things before or after the game. Try to progress your both feet to be better. If you play with your left foot, this will be an advantage since most of the players use their right feet. There are online sections that you can join and can take the attention of talent seekers. It is important to share your expectations and hopes with your family and friends in order to support you. If you are still young, talent seekers may want to meet your family as well to estimate the level of your family’s support. Always have fun when you play. Be fearful.
