USWNT starlet Gisele Thompson joined by another teenage sensation! Angel City FC signs South Korea's 16-year-old phenom Casey Phair - the youngest player in World Cup history

The teenager - who made her FIFA World Cup debut at just 16-years-old - revealed that after the World Cup she didn't want to train at her age level or even play in college. Following the tournament, she trained with NWSL sides KC Current and Gotham FC, but ended up signing for the Los Angeles-based club.

In an interview with ESPN, Phair revealed her ambitions and why she chose Angel City:

"I played in the World Cup with and against the best players," Phair said. "Coming back from that, I don't really see how I could play U-17 and then go to college. I wanted to keep getting better and not just peak at the World Cup, then go down and go to college and then have to get back up to a professional level."

"One of the biggest things I liked about L.A. was that it was similar to Korea, where I felt very comfortable in the environment and just meeting the staff and all the coaches and the other players," Phair continued. "They were just so welcoming. They gave off the vibe that they wanted me there and that they wanted to help me. I thought Angel City had the best plan for me."

Phair is the second teenager Angel City have signed this offseason, with the other being USWNT starlet Gisele Thompson - younger sister of 2023 World Cup player Alyssa. With such talented youth in the mix, the future looks bright for one of the top teams in NWSL.

The 2024 NWSL season will get underway this March, with Angel City looking to better their 2023 campaign. With the two young superstars now on the roster, the question remains - will their youth lead them to glory this time around?
