Atlanta United announced today that it has loaned left back Jose Hernandez and forward Patrick Okonkwo to their USL team for the 2019 season.
Today is MLS roster compliance day and these two moves seem to be the ones to get the club in good standing within the “rules.”
Hernandez, 21, was acquired in 2018 and appeared one time for the first team in MLS last season.
Okonkwo, 20, is a Homegrown Player. This will be his second straight season on loan after spending all of 2018 with the Charleston Battery.
