After a bevy of outgoing moves that has left Atlanta United’s roster relatively thin as training camp began this week, head coach Gonzalo Pineda revealed to media Friday that help is on the way.
Pineda revealed that the club is close with as many as three players, all of whom will presumably be important players for the squad and starting eleven. The club has gotten rid of some players who have been key starters for the Five Stripes in the past, most notably center back Alan Franco, midfielder Marcelino Moreno, and (soon) forward Josef Martinez.
Pineda didn’t disclose any information on the players in question, but one would presume that the incoming players would play roughly similar roles that those three notable departures.
