4) USA
Interest in the beautiful game in the United States of America constantly continues to increase. The ongoing Copa America 2016 has had a great set of passionate audiences, and a solid United States lineup that has done their country more than proud.
Major League Soccer has been growing slowly but surely, and the standard of players is improving as well. The evidence is the multitude of young talented players that the US is now producing and who are beginning to make an impression on an international level.
There are now more than 80 football development academy facilities that act as a conduit to MLS, English Premier League and Italian Serie A teams and the popularity of football amongst the youth is at an all-time high.
If the United States can continue to churn out talents like Christian Pulisic, Gedion Zelalem and Julian Green and begin to pull out the financial muscle their economy is capable of providing, they could have a very bright future.
