that real strict genius are also trained to find that she didn't grow up in luxury. it had struggled to realize the strings did. louis i'll just, ah, come from one of the came from somewhere quite different and really was seeing snow for the 1st time. it's about a month think considering his background. it's incredible how quickly everythings happening in the age of 9 used to life change dramatically when his father brought him to germany. swapping tropical yellow and day for hamburg, and the northern steeple itself. in inclement weather. it wasn't the only challenge he faced when starting out was pounding him up. communication was an issue. he wrote a message, you'd be trying to figure it out. we got by often with sign language and football created. turn the ball and it's a cliche, but it's true. the other boys help them integrate quickly. for all the supposed

culture shock. he was in good hands and it was soon apparent that you sofa was a cut above his p as aged 11. he was put him with the on the 15th, a quick coaches, st. talent, now more than holding his own and the youth ranks of a professional club has looked up. he just loved playing football. if you could sense that in every fiber of his body, every moment in training, the quality he had was obvious. it was just about finding the right mix. i know the teeth, the dribbling another individual stuff while integrating it into more of a team oriented performance. but there, as well, he was very quick to adapt and put theory into practice. but there are 23 goals. in 13 games in his 1st full season was thank county as the youngest member of the team by far less than 2 years in hamburg,

mckoko was stirring the interest of some seriously big clubs and development would prove them most persistent in yorba, linda, california, 60 kilometers southeast of downtown l. a football mad. matthew hoppey, i grew up here. the youngest of 3 kids. this is matthew. been in his. he shares with his brother and business and were his side of the room. at 14, he spoke to the parental home for iris owner and the pastor residency academy that and i'm just curious, that's not an easy one to take that age from a domestic perspective. mm. i think we're pretty close to that family. so it's always tough when your children move further away and it's harder to be able to see them new at a very young age. what he wanted to do, he wanted to play a professional soccer and he wanted to play in europe. and so it was not a surprise to us, right? we just knew it was his lifelong dream is just to tailor for less time at the same

time to study you c l a i knew like he missed like small things like his friends and his dogs. and stuff like what i would drive home from los angeles to go back home. i sent pictures of the dogs and stuff like that so you could see how they're doing and like talking about things going on here. so it's really fun having that shared experience with him like, oh, moving out the same time development. i kind of me touch the ground day. i was the operates in partnership with european giants and set up for budding us talents, recruitment direct to me, how klein recalls matthews, early days that ah, came out then for a for a trial in the summer of 2017 had a very good weekend. we noticed a lot of very good traits and characteristics of the player. he's personality was very good. she was very, very tenacious. and was he took off,

he started scoring goals and scored over almost he goes to his father, tom matthews. time of the academy was a defining period for his sporting development, and perhaps even more so on a personal level that he had to go to a lot of in train over there for a couple weeks. but i think the thing that helped matthew out the most was being inside an environment where 247, you're living with your teammates, you're going to school with your boys. you're with your teammates all the time. and you're building friendships and bonds that that can last a lifetime. in 2019, he joined the captain speed child was renowned academy, progressing from the 19th to the reserves. next step up with no. well, obviously a big difference in mobile. the change that have been as they go from the twenty's,

the punch, the massive became so much faster and you have to be so much smarter. the keys hello to florida. oh please. for the last one i can get dr. dynamism and blistering pace make for an irresistible old man package sealer her temper obama. one of the biggest, most exciting attacking talents after paying initially as a center for which he's now generally deployed further out wide change that comes with specific new responsibilities as a means to do also defensive work in those hands. how you adapt to that in the last 18 months it's, it's credible. this is the nice all the qualities already can see in

a stadium. this is, this is special special. the qualities that earned him successive rookie of the months, awards in november and december, last year he was learning in the 2nd tier and france wasn't so demanding that you always have space to operate in. get going surely the show and did this. when i came to germany, my had to adapt to the more physical style which i'm put in a lot more defensive work as well. so hold my own in the league here, have a book with your mind up to which i'm not. if you have it on the open field is like, you don't want to be, you know, it's not like to be want to get funded gilman and the riskier use academy. 2 years after leaving cameroon, used to for mckoko,

had landed up one of germany's biggest clubs and he needs to be honest, i'd never have thought i was that good times or good people were always saying it, but i didn't believe them happens to i'm so then when i saw some of the teams that were interested in me by and boss alona and so on. and i found that pretty impressive foundations or research time, but was really impressive, has been used ongoing development in black and yellow. he was the lead top scorer of the under 17. at the ripe old age of 30 days was incredible. he got there and just kept on scoring and that's how it's continued with him. always pushing up towards the next level. that's truly admirable because the youth level superstar repeatedly resetting the record for his age. great and getting an early run out for germany's on the 16th as well ahead of last

season. still on the 15, he was promoted to dockman senior school. the club had successfully lobbied for the minimum age for boon. does the good to be lowered to 16 and the rest is history. the last day of being who should be facing him in as a backup for holland. but when the could get his chance to lead the line, he's a commanding presence with my child. i didn't like if it's for him, the school is the limits. we thought we'd an inkling of it back then with his talent. it'll be exciting to see how he develops when, when november 2020 shall go

with floundering at the foot of the table and having seemingly forgotten how to win . matthew hope he hadn't yet progressed the reserves, but that was all about to change. said you know what? i think i'm going to be on the squad and i could job and then next day goes by. you know, i think i got a chance of starting. like, you know, it was, i think it was kind of a little bit of a high, you know what i mean with that because you see him finally just accomplish something that he's always wanted to do to be able to plan the 1st his 1st appearance came a way to mentioned back, it was no dream w, a shocker. again. you right now with the position on where the club is, is difficult for everyone on the team to try and do the best to get out of it. so i think just the situation itself is very difficult. the child has next full matches, yields it just a single point 30 game without to victory. and then came puppies,

chick, heroics against health and hind releasing a collective sigh of royal blue relief. that one game winless record run remains the sole property of tasmania. and they're welcome to it. especially asked me to be able to help the club and, and even tasmania to help them keep the record and that it was, it was a crazy day for me. his work ethic, his time is commitment, but especially those vital goals through his team, a lifeline and struggle for blended legal survival even in that time of christ. this copy was named january's rookie of the month and also append to contract extension shocker. i think that it was the best decision for me in the, in the club. and they gave me a chance when a lot of teams i think will. and they believe me in the least back in the club. so matthew loves the club, matthew bleed, blue shockey, right. matthew, love,

socket. shops done so much for him and he wants to help the club. you know, stay up. maybe matthew, hope he will help bring, shall come back along with you. susan mckoko and the last company and all the other fast rising young talents in the wind is niga. germany's next football generation is looking for the promise. ah. the news. the news
