The Dutch club announced that the 18-year-old has signed with them on Friday, penning a contract until 2026. The youth product will join the under-18 squad for the remainder of the campaign, and his status will be re-evaluated come the summer, in terms of a potential first-team role.

"Paulo is an attacking midfielder who can play in several positions," says Rini Coolen, Head of Academy at Feyenoord. 'He is also insightfully strong and has the right winning mentality. Despite the fact that he has only been a Feyenoord player for a short time, he has quickly managed to adapt to the club. It's great to see how hard he works every day to get the most out of himself."

Rudisill made his debut last Friday for Feyenoord's Under-18 team in a 2-1 victory over Groningen, where he was 'on target' the entire match. The midfielder can play as a No.10 or out wide, with his versatility seeing him rise in recent years. He has been part of both the Under-16 and Under-17 USA youth squads at the international level and recently competed at the U-17 FIFA World Cup with the USYNT, where they suffered a heartbreaking 87th-minute loss in the round of 16 to eventual champions Germany.
