Love Undercover: Today’s athletes are mega stars with extreme wealth, adoring fans and lavish lifestyles, but fame and fortune can come at a price. For Jamie O’Hara, Marco Fabián, Sebastián Fassi, Ryan Babel and Lloyd Jones, finding someone who loves them for who they truly are, not what they have, is harder than going pro. The ballers decide to leave it all behind for the one place on Earth that truly values what’s on the inside: Los Angeles. In this modern-day fairytale meets buddy comedy, these five international soccer stars travel to America in hopes of finding true love with women unsuspecting of their status. The ballers quickly learn that at Players HQ, the women have possession, and egos get bruised as the athletes find that without soccer, it’s harder to score. If they find true love, they must reveal their identity to their partner.
