Should Atlanta United worry about the international slots?

“Do not worry about international slots,” a wise man once said.

That’s probably true. At the end of the day, the casual fan need not concern themselves with how Atlanta United goes about complying with any number of MLS’s draconian roster rules and regulations prior to the ball being kicked in early April. But if you’re reading this, you’re probably not one of those aforementioned casual fans, which means you’re wondering how Atlanta United is going to get themselves situated for the season with so many international players arriving recently. I’ve been curious myself.

As it stands, Atlanta United currently has nine international slots according to the league website (more than the standard eight slots after literally paying Nashville for one).
