Why would this be damaging to the team, the club and the State?
Relatively speaking, shoplifting is small taters. Not meaning to sound callous but from a societal perspective I'm far more concerned over the values implied by parents convinced their 12 year old is on track to get a college scholarship to play soccer.
My 12 year old is convinced he's playing in Barcelona, so this doesn't apply to me!!!!
This is a personal matter that has nothing to do with Club soccer.
