Paxten Aaronson is set to follow in the footsteps of his brother Brenden and make the move to Europe in January. The 19-year-old sealed a switch to Eintracht Frankfurt last month with the transfer officially set to go through once the window opens.
It is a similar career path to that of Brenden, with the Leeds United star also taking the plunge to leave MLS at 19 when he joined Red Bull Salzburg. It was that move to Austria that is now allowing him to flourish in the Premier League, as well as step out for his country at this winter's World Cup, with the US having reached the last-16.
Football in USA is seemingly going from strength to strength, with more and more members of the squad plying their trade in Europe and some of the best league's in the world. Like Brenden, captain Tyler Adams is also currently at Leeds, while Christian Pulisic (Chelsea), Sergino Dest (AC Milan), Weston McKennie (Juventus) and Matt Turner (Arsenal) are among numerous others playing at the very top level.
