There are flight schools in the US which offer training according to both syllabus, FAA (US) and EASA (EU) both can be done at the same time, or combined with each other, if one desires to do so. In the end the candidate will be issued two independent licenses (FAA and EASA), which in my opinion is a smart way to do.
Thank you for making it clear for me. I researched further and hopefully learned about the differences The combination seems to be a great way to go.
