Back then, global youth scouting was the exception. Today, it’s the strategy.
Clubs around the world are appointing Global Emerging Talent leads—validating a shift we’ve championed since day one.
But we saw something deeper: Visibility and Opportunity weren’t equally distributed.

Six years ago, before it became a real trend we could see, in the direction of travel, that professional football was getting younger and younger.
The numbers don’t lie, the average age of squads is dropping, the portion of clubs transfer budgets going on players under 21 is ballooning, and some of the biggest names in the sport are increasingly getting their first team debuts as teenagers.
We built Eyeball by working with the best in football. Top clubs have spent millions perfecting how they spot and develop young talent, backed by systems, processes, and now cutting-edge data and technology.
Eyeball supports Champions League winners, world-renowned academies, and clubs across all levels of European football. We take insights from the very top and distil them into the fundamentals of talent development.
We are frequently asked; Are we a technology company or a football company?
What we are is a team of people, each individual a specialist in a subject domain, united by the love of football and motivated by a vision to develop and deploy technology at a scale and price point that enables every young player to benefit from the best advice, information, and meaningful personalized insights.
So who are we; we are players, scouts, coaches, analysts, data-scientists, coders, technologists, accountants, lawyers, marketeers, Mum’s, Dad’s, brothers and sisters.
Football is a school of life, shaped by the interactions between players, parents, coaches, teachers, and teammates. These relationships influence not only performance but also how players enjoy and experience their journey—whether they go pro or simply grow through the game.
Team sports are well known for their positive impact on young people, and data can play an important role in enhancing that experience. Eyeball believes that the right data, used at the right time, can support both individual players and teams in reaching their goals. Even simple data helps players engage, track progress, and enjoy the game more—something research shows is closely tied to happiness.
Ultimately, a player’s football journey often reflects how they progress through life itself.
