The U.S. squad for this year's World Cup has a presidential son in Timofey Weah, a 22-year-old striker whose father is Liberian President Weah. The 22-year-old striker's father is Liberia's President Weah. Weah Sr. won the Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year during his playing days, but has never played in a World Cup final week, so Weah Jr. can finally fulfill his father's dream.
Old Weah was a hall of fame goal scorer in the 1990s, playing for
Paris Saint Germain
AC Milan (football club)
Marseille,
Chelsea (car brand)
Manchester City football club
In 1995, he reached the peak of his career, winning the Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year. However, the superstar of his generation represented Liberia in international matches.

The World Cup has been a long time coming, but it's a long time coming, and it's a long time coming.
Born in the U.S., Timofeverea went to France like his father to earn a living.
Paris Saint Germain
A youth product, he now plays for another Ligue 1 team, Lille. However, Weah Jr. chose to represent the United States over Liberia and scored a goal for the U.S. in a warm-up game against Bolivia in May 2018, becoming the 4th-youngest player in U.S. history to score a goal, taking after his dad's touch as a goal scorer.
Since the United States didn't qualify for the last World Cup, Timofemea has waited four years for a chance to play on the international stage, and he's ready to become a shining star.
