I think signing teenagers who are already focused on the team they will play for after us is not an effective way to build a competitive winning team in the present.

It can work, but only if they are good enough. So far the hit rate is quite low.

This is literally the mindset of any youth player in Latin America. They are not thinking of playing their entire careers at Boca Juniors, Atletico Nacional, Penarol, or Flamengo..no matter how much they or their families may be fanatics of said clubs. They all have their eyes set on Europe.

What if your objective has nothing to do with being a competitive winning team?

Must suck for Houston to be nothing more than a farm team for RB Global.
