Da’vian Kimbrough is charting his own path on the soccer field.
On Tuesday, Kimbrough became the youngest professional soccer player (13 years, 5 months and 13 days) in the United States when he signed a professional contract with the USL’s Sacramento Republic FC. The 13-year-old phenom also became the youngest pro athlete among North American professional sports that include the NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL and WNBA.
That title was previously held by New York City FC’s Maximo Carrizo, who signed with the club at age 14 in February ’22.
