After being inked in July by Atlanta United, and spending the last 6 months on loan at Coventry City in England, Chris McCann is eager to help kick off the MLS expansion club’s inaugural season.
At 28-years-old with long spells at well-established English clubs Burnley and Wigan, the Irish midfielder brings a wealth of professional experience to Atlanta.
It’s a brand new club enduring its first-ever preseason, highlighted by a world-class training staff, an international mix of players, and no shortage of young talent. So far, McCann has been impressed with the caliber, the atmosphere and the camaraderie in his newfound situation.
