From a sporting perspective, there are few things more frustrating than a player being held back by persistent injuries. From a young age, Paxton Pomykal’s talent and potential have never been in doubt, only his ability to stay on the field. The midfielder is enjoying a solid season at FC Dallas and appears to have regained career momentum. If his progression continues upward, the national team stands to benefit.
Pomykal was born in Lewisville, Texas. He spent several years with the Dallas Texans youth club, receiving the opportunity to trial with Hoffenheim, Hertha Berlin, Manchester United, Crewe Alexandra, Derby County, and Atlético Madrid.
