New York, NY – Be The Next Pro, the elite global soccer scouting and development platform, proudly announces the first professional signing from its most recent United States edition in Long Island. Rising talent Julián Gómez has officially signed his first professional contract with Cibao FC, a top-tier club in the Dominican Republic’s First Division.

Gómez participated in the Long Island edition of Be The Next in April 2025. After showcasing his skill, mentality, and professionalism, he caught the attention of scouts and earned his breakthrough with Cibao FC. This marks a major milestone both in his personal journey and in the continued evolution of the Be The Next platform.

“This project started with nothing but passion, a dream, and a suitcase full of wild ideas and it is now about to air on ESPN,” said Diego Hurtado, CEO and Founder of Diaza. “Julián’s signing is proof of what is possible when talent meets opportunity.”

Be The Next continues to produce real outcomes for aspiring players. Participants from past editions, including events in Miami and New York, have already secured professional contracts and trials with clubs across Europe, Latin America, and the United States.

Be The Next is not just an event. It is a launchpad.
