NEWELL’S youth system’s alumni have a striking footprint in the present and history of global soccer… From the best footballer of the 21st Century and arguably of all-time; to champions in all three of Argentina’s FIFA World Cup’s (1978, 1986, 2022); outstanding players in Spain’s La Liga, England’s Premier League, Italian Serie A, Brazil’s Serie A, French Ligue1 and the MLS; and current and past coaches of major clubs such as Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, Chelsea, Paris Saint Germain or Tottenham Hotspur, and national teams like Argentina, Chile, Mexico or Uruguay.
HOW MANY CLUBS CAN CLAIM THAT TWO OF THE THREE GENIUSES OF THE SOUTHAMERICAN SOCCER TRINITY —MESSI, MARADONA AND PELE— WORE THEIR JERSEYS?
NEWELL’S status as one of the most prolific producers of
talent in Argentina, South America and the Planet stems from a unique mix of
more than 120 years of fútbol tradition; the cultural diversity of the City of
Rosario; and a penchant for fierce, high tempo and modern soccer. The kind of soccer that took Argentina to the conquest of the 2022 FIFA World Cup under head coach Lionel Scaloni, a NEWELL'S graduate.
Or the kind that rescued historic English club Leeds United from a 14-year absence from the Premier League, under Marcelo Bielsa, another graduate of NEWELL'S youth system, the legend after whom the NEWELL'S home stadium is named and a soccer mastermind admired by some of the most reputed coaches of today —like Madrid's Carlo Ancelotti, City's Pep Guardiola or Arsenal's Mikel Arteta.
After more than a century of nurturing world class talent, technical and tactical knowledge, the same youth system that feeds both NEWELL'S women and men teams competing in the top division of Argentinean football, has arrived in the US East Coast!
