Luis Figo’s Dream Football launch app to give young footballers a chance

Luis Figo’s Dream Football company has launched an app aimed at allowed young footballers to catch the eye of scouts and professional teams.

Last month, Figo said, (H/T SportTechie)“We are here launching the new app that we believe can create more conditions for kids that are not in the cycle of the normal scouts, that they can follow their dreams and achieve the dreams through us,”

The Portuguese legend of the game has seen that many young footballers with talent fail to make the grade simply because they don’t get noticed, slipping the net simply because there are no scouts in their area or watching their games.

The Dream Football app aims to change this by allowing members to shoot and edit videos of their skills and upload them to the site for all to see.

“Of course when you register your video and you added the best part, it doesn’t mean already that you are going to be a professional football player, but you follow your dream, and we create that tool that allows the talent not to be left behind,” said Figo.
