Many would argue that Thiago Almada has been Atlanta United’s most consistent and talented player this season. The young Argentine often described as a “generational talent” has helped steady the Five Stripes’ midfield through an otherwise turbulent year. He’s also currently sitting at ten assists on the season and four away from breaking the Atlanta United assist record held by Miguel Almiron and Julian Gressel.
Therefore, it makes total sense that the Argentine National Team would be giving Almada a ring as the September international window approaches. La Abicileste will be playing Honduras and Jamaica in their final matches to meld before the World Cup arrives later this season.
