Show Notes:
This week’s Swiss Ballers Pod takes a deep dive into the world of football scouting — and trust us, it’s one of the most insightful conversations we’ve ever had. Our guest, Jack Loxton, scout at West Bromwich Albion, joins Fabo and Arman to pull back the curtain on how young players are spotted, developed, and supported in one of the world’s most competitive football ecosystems.
Jack gives us a rare behind-the-scenes look at the UK academy structure, from how scouts identify talent to how clubs nurture players across age groups. We talk about the balance between talent and mentality and the harsh realities when things don’t work out.
