Expert Analysis
JR Eskilson | Prep Soccer Scout
Ream is probably the most exciting outside back prospect in some time for the Youth National Team. He is originally from Arizona, but joined the Real Salt Lake Academy. He appears to be on the fast track through the academy as well. He has earned the starting role at left back while playing up an age group (he plays with the 08s) this season. He is comfortable on the ball in possession. He uses both of his feet pretty well. He is not a flyer on the winger as he tends to take a more measured approach to the position. When he does go forward, he tends to do it when he gets possession early – either he dribbles through the opposition or he combines with a teammate on a 1-2 in the channel. Part of that is coaching and tactics, but it does suggest his mentality this season has been more defensive. He has good close control when he’s dribbling into the attack. He’s a strong individual defender and should be one of the top players to watch from this camp.
