Viral 3-Year-Old Football Sensation Nevada Pierre Gets Academy Opportunity as Jay-Z’s Roc Nation Steps In Three-year-old football sensation Nevada Pierre, whose remarkable ball skills have attracted widespread attention on social media, has received fresh opportunities to develop his talent following a controversial incident at a youth football match in Florida. Nevada went viral after videos showed him dribbling past older children and scoring goals during a youth league game in Winter Park, Florida, on October 24. The incident attracted further attention after police were called following a dispute involving his parents and league officials. While Nevada’s family said he was being unfairly treated because of his football ability, the league maintained that the disagreement involved the adults and also raised concerns about the boy’s conduct during the match. Police made no arrests and treated the incident as a civil matter. Former United States international footballer Eddie Johnson has since offered Nevada a place in his EJE7 Soccer Academy in Orlando to support his development. Jay-Z’s Roc Nation Sports has also reportedly pledged support, with plans to take Nevada and his family to Spain in December for an athletic development experience. His parents have expressed interest in relocating to Spain to further nurture his football talent.
