Atlanta United's Miguel Almiron says he's ready to play in Europe

As he prepares to feature in his second MLS All-Star Game in his second season in the league, Miguel Almiron says he's ready to play in Europe.

The 24-year-old chose to leave Lanus for Atlanta United ahead of the 2017 season, and has made an instant impact in North America, scoring 17 goals and 25 assists in 53 appearances in Major League Soccer.

Almiron believes that level of production has prepared him to play in one of Europe's top leagues. During an exclusive interview ahead of Wednesday's MLS All-Star Game against Juventus (7:30 p.m. ET, ESPN), Almiron was asked if he was ready for the challenge of European football.
