Any word on Tyler Polley?

If Polley is a U.S. citizen, then he does not escape taxes. Doesn't matter where he plays. Nice fantasy though.

Per IRS:

"If you are a U.S. citizen or a resident alien of the United States and you live abroad, you are taxed on your worldwide income. However, you may qualify to exclude your foreign earnings from income up to an amount that is adjusted annually for inflation ($105,900 for 2019, $107,600 for 2020, $108,700 for 2021, and $112,000 for 2022). In addition, you can exclude or deduct certain foreign housing amounts."

Yes but you are taxed in the country where you earn the money as well. You do get a foreign tax credit against US Income taxes on the foreign taxes paid. In any event, there is no free ride.

Everyone is missing the point with all these arguments about taxes. Yes, you still have to pay taxes if you play in Europe. The point is that part of the contract for an American player playing in Europe is the team pays the taxes
