KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Gianluca Busio is aware of his age and his place as the second-youngest player to sign an MLS deal – and the youngest active player in any major American sport, for that matter.
It’s not a pressing concern for Sporting Kansas City’s 15-year-old forward, though.
“I don’t really think about that kind of stuff,” Busio told reporters after a club news conference on Friday. “I don’t care, really. I just want to play soccer. I know it’s nice to be the youngest and be known as something special, but I just want to work and play soccer.
