Gonzalo Segares’ team lost 2-3 to Germany U-17 in the round of 16 of the 2023 U-17 World Cup which was held at the Si Jalak Harupat Stadium, Bandung, Tuesday (21/11/2023). However, the progress of the United States U-17 in the 2023 U-17 World Cup leaves an interesting story.
Yes, one of the United States U-17 players, Keylor Figueroa, apparently has a special relationship with Antoine Griezmann. According to the Liverpool Echo, Griezmann has taken a personal interest in the 17-year-old.

“Keyrol is amazed every time Antoine (Griezmann) contacts him. He likes it. “Antoine has become a mentor for the child, via Whatsapp with words of encouragement,” said an internal source to the Figueroa family, quoted by the same source.
“It’s brilliant for him to have one of the greatest strikers in football following his development. “This is a big encouragement,” he added.
