Leonardo Stone is an absolute gem of a player that scouts have only recently found through a minor soccer club in the Southeastern USA. After seeing him play in action, Stone received a call saying that the Academy has taken interest in him and potential suitors are expected to come calling once they watch film. Stone has always been dominant in every league he's been in... but some may say that the competition he has faced has simply been too easy for someone who has SSL aspirations. It's easy to beat former high school stars in club soccer, but can that jump be made to the pros? That is yet to be seen.
Stone is an extremely fast player, and has excellent pace, being able to outrun most team's best players. He plays smart, and knows when to pass the ball out to his teammates. And his best stat is of course his finishing. He continuously manages to outrun his defender and dribble left, right, and even through the defender sometimes. He's an absolute wizard on the field. With that said, he of course does not come with downsides. Stone is a terrible defender. Teams will have to find ways to hide him on defense until he is able to pick up the speed necessary. As of right now, I think even the opposing team's coach could score on him. But he is young and athletic, and based on our conversations with him he seems ready to work on it. Welcome to the SSL Stone.
