However, we noticed that in many countries’ talent identification needs improvement, as current approaches are often ineffective and not well adapted to the local context. Through the FIFA Talent Development Scheme, we are actively working to raise standards in this area by providing specialist support and education tailored to each country’s unique needs. The world train of youth development has started and is unstoppable, but we want everybody on board and thereis still some work to do on that front. I count on you to contribute to that as well. You can count on us because we’ll give absolutely everything to make that dream come true.”  \n“Every young player deserves a fair chance to be seen. Through the FIFA Talent Development Scheme, we are committed to helping every member association build strong, structured pathways that elevate their talent ecosystems. This guide reflects that commitment–offering practical support to ensure that no talent is left behind. Identifying talents is only the beginning, but ensuring we get this first step right is essential to building systems where potential can truly flourish.“  \nSteven Martens  \nFIFA Technical Director  \n“Success in the development of players cannot be defined by a one-size-fits-all template. Each association, community, and nation has its own DNA–its own metric  \nof success. With the FIFA Talent Development Scheme, we listen to what each member needs and tailor our support accordingly. This guide is built on that principle–to help you design a talent identification system where every child, no matter where they are born or what resources they have, can be seen and supported.”  \nUlf Schott  \nFIFA Head of High Performance Programmes  \n2 Technical Guide for Talent Identification 3  \nEditorial  \n Team  \nAchuthan Shanmugaratnam  \nPhD Research Scholar and FIFA High Performance Researcher  \nRichard Allen  \nHigh Performance Specialist and Talent ID Technical Lead  \nProfessor Adam Kelly  \nProfessor of Sport and Exercise and FIFA Knowledge Translation Specialist  \nStephen Morrow  \nFIFA Talent ID Specialist  \nMirelle van Rijboek  \nFIFA Talent ID Specialist  \nContents  \nWelcome to the FIFA Talent Identification Guide ....................................................................................... 6  \nTalent Identification Dimensions Model explained.................................................................................... 8  \nDimension 1–Philosophy 10  \nThe Welsh Way-Developing a national football philosophy................................................................... 14  \nTalent identification in Finland ................................................................................................................. 16  \nWhy the Norwegian FA’s talent identification process is not “too narrow, too early”............................ 24  \nThe Spanish model, philosophy and player development ...................................................................... 28  \nSummary .................................................................................................................................................... 30  \nDimension 2–Profiles 34  \nDeveloping the player of the future .......................................................................................................... 42  \nHow Australia use player profiles to identify talent and educate coaches ............................................. 44  \nSofyan Amrabat: Play-breaker to playmaker............................................................................................ 46  \nSalma Paralluelo: Raider of the final third................................................................................................ 48  \nSetting physical benchmarks across positions ......","cbCailYRcPkB8hzq","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailYRcPkB8hzq","pdf",11898227,98,"English","# Welcome to the FIFA Talent Identification Guide\n# Talent Identification Dimensions Model explained\n## Dimension 1–Philosophy\n## Dimension 2–Profiles\n## Dimension 3–Identification\n## Dimension 4–Selection","[{\"question\":\"What is the Talent Identification Dimensions Model?\",\"answer\":\"It is a structured framework organizing talent identification into key dimensions, including philosophy, player profiles, identification practices, and selection processes.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does FIFA emphasize avoiding a one-size-fits-all talent identification approach?\",\"answer\":\"Because each association and nation has its own “DNA” and success metrics, requiring tailored support that fits local needs, resources, and context.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the guide aim to ensure every young player is treated fairly?\",\"answer\":\"By promoting strong, structured pathways and practical, education-focused support so talent is identified and supported without leaving players behind.\"}]","FIFA Talent Identification Guide - Talent identification system | PDF",34]
