My Take
Tanner Tessmann is exactly the kind of American export I love to follow. Born in Birmingham, Alabama in 2001, he now anchors midfield for Lyon in Ligue 1 and represents the United States national team, which says a lot about both his ambition and his quality. Central midfield is the least glamorous, most demanding job on the pitch, all running, reading and patience, and the fact he holds it down at a French powerhouse impresses me. I see him as part of a generation proving American soccer can compete abroad rather than just import talent. I expect him to become a national-team mainstay heading into the next World Cup cycle.
