One of the more high profile members of the Philadelphia Union Academy - thanks in part to his recent appearance in the first episode of the “Earn Your Place” documentary - recently announced his future college plans.
Issa Rayyan verbally committed on social media last week to Duke University for 2018, where he will join teammate Seth Kuhn competing in college soccer’s toughest conference.
The 16-year-old Michigan native joined the Union Academy from Vardar Academy last season and was second in goals on the U16 team with 11 in 23 appearances while also making two appearances for the U18s.
