Founded by Sebastian Kosiarz
Euro Soccer Direct was founded by CEO Sebastian Kosiarz with a clear vision: to create a more direct connection between talented players in the United States and opportunities within European football. With a strong understanding of the European football landscape and an established network within the game, Sebastian recognized that many talented players have the ability and ambition to compete at a higher level but lack the relationships and access needed to get there.
Built From Experience and Relationships
Sebastian built Euro Soccer Direct around the relationships he has developed with clubs, academies, coaches, scouts, and football professionals throughout Europe. His approach is personal and hands-on, working to understand each player's ability, experience, and goals before identifying opportunities that make sense for their development. Rather than relying on mass outreach or simply sending highlight videos, Sebastian uses his network to help open doors and create meaningful connections for players.
How EU Football Pathways Work — Insights from ESD CEO & AMERICAN ACTOR, Aaron Spears
Breaking into European professional soccer isn’t just about talent—it’s driven by relationships. Scouts, agents, and coaches rely on trusted networks, so trials and opportunities often depend on access. Without visibility or representation, players face a major disadvantage.
Built to Create Real Opportunities
Euro Soccer Direct was created with a clear purpose: to give ambitious players a direct pathway into European football. Talent exists everywhere, but opportunity and access do not. For many players in the United States, reaching legitimate European clubs, academies, coaches, and decision-makers can be extremely difficult without the right relationships. ESD was built to bridge that gap and connect promising players with genuine opportunities abroad.
Direct Access to European Football
Our strength is our network. Through established relationships with clubs, academies, coaches, scouts, and football professionals throughout Europe, Euro Soccer Direct helps players reach environments that would otherwise be difficult to access. Rather than simply sending highlight videos and hoping for a response, we work to create meaningful introductions and opportunities based on each player's ability, experience, position, and long-term goals.
More Than Just a Connection
Getting an opportunity in Europe is only the beginning. Euro Soccer Direct helps players and families navigate the process from initial evaluation and preparation through trials, training, placement, travel, and arrival. We believe every opportunity should have a purpose, which is why we focus on finding environments where players can challenge themselves, develop their game, and demonstrate their ability in front of the right people.
Turning Ambition Into Opportunity
We don't promise professional contracts or guarantee where a player's football journey will lead. What we provide is something equally important: the opportunity to get in the room. To train in the right environment. To be evaluated by the right people. And to prove what you can do. Euro Soccer Direct exists to turn ambition into access and give serious players a legitimate opportunity to take their game to Europe.
