Story by Haley Smilow A crisp, brisk, clear sky hangs over the port, cliffs and lighthouse in Plymouth, England. Home to fish markets, sharks and Plymouth Argyle Football Club. The birthplace of Phoenix Rising defender and midfielder James Musa. 'My mom had close ties with Plymouth Argyle,' Musa said. 'I was a massive fan of them and idolized their players.' Plymouth is where Musa fell in love with the beautiful game. It's where he built fundamental skills and started going to school. But soon, that was all pulled out from under him.
