Tim Weah has a lot of weight on his shoulders with expectations he will live up to his family name. The dynamic forward is the son of 1995 FIFA World Player of the Year, George Weah one of the most famous African footballers of all time and currently the President of Liberia. Tim, however, is intent on being judged by his own merits and not relying on his family’s legacy. Though still early in his career, the younger Weah has made strides in that direction, becoming the first player born in 2000 to earn an MNT cap, while coming along with European club giants Paris Saint-Germain and Celtic.
EARLY DAYS
A BREAKOUT YEAR
CLUB CAREER
Following in his father’s footsteps, Weah signed with Paris Saint-Germain in 2017 and spent much of his first year with the club playing with the reserves and U-19 youth side. Weah made his first appearances with the club in the closing weeks of the 2017/2018 season and would go on to net his first league goal in August of 2018. Living in Paris allowed Weah to explore his two main interests outside of the game: the high-fashion boutiques of the Champs-Élysées and creating music, especially R&B and hip-hop. In January of 2019, he was loaned to Scottish giants Celtic and took to the club immediately, tallying a goal in his debut with that same month, before going on to collect a winner’s medal as Celtic won the Scottish Premier League for an eighth-straight season.
