I'm not sure you all understand: Juventus are in MLS NEXT. The news is out there. Will be announced soon.
The other New England clubs are pissed, but BA is funding the whole thing. That's the only reason they're in. They're ideally giving kids that wouldn't have otherwise had access to these programs chances, but in reality, it will be kids from Newton, Wellesley, and Duxbury that benefit from it, with one or two kids that couldn't afford it getting in. But those kids would have been given scholarships anyway, so instead it will just be rich people deciding they don't want to spend $3-4k at another club when they can just get it for free elsewhere.
