Jordan Mingzhang Liu: Athlete, Investor, and Adventurer
Welcome to Jordan's Journey
I'm a soccer player and global explorer, currently training at IMG Academy and competing in the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) — the unofficial 4th tier of U.S. Soccer. Every day, I push myself to new limits, training with elite athletes and taking on MLS U19 teams like LAFC, Philadelphia Union, and LA Galaxy. Soccer isn’t just a sport to me — it’s my passion, my discipline, and my drive.
From Moscow to Florida, my journey has taken me across continents, from leading my high school volleyball and basketball teams to competing in top soccer tournaments like the National Academy League and Las Vegas Showcase. I’ve earned championships, MVP titles, and even the Golden Boot, but it’s the thrill of constant improvement that keeps me going.
Off the field, I’m a multicultural adventurer, having represented Italy at Model United Nations in New York and helped launch football programs in underprivileged areas of China. Every experience, whether in sport or in service, fuels my hunger to grow as a leader, athlete, and global citizen.
Soccer has shown me the world — and I’m just getting started.
Training Never Stops
I have never missed a single day of soccer training, relentlessly pursuing my passion with unwavering dedication and a drive to constantly improve.

Building the Community
Coaching and Founding Football Programs in Underprivileged Areas (Yinchuan, China) — January 2024 – Present
Driven by a passion for soccer and a commitment to making a difference, I spearheaded an initiative to bring the sport to schools in remote areas of Yinchuan, China. I organized donations to establish football teams, secured equipment, and developed training plans. During my breaks, I travel to these areas to personally coach the teams, aiming to mentor and guide them at least every three months. This project combines my love for soccer with a mission to empower youth in underserved communities through the discipline and teamwork of sports.
