With ATL letting Jacob Peterson go and not re-signing Yamil Asad, the lack of depth on the wing is noticeable; especially on Carleton’s favored left side. He is the only direct substitute for Ezequiel Barco. While Julian Gressel and Brandon Vasquez can play on either side, they are both better off on the right side with their preferred foot. This season could prove to be a massive opportunity for the youngster. Maybe Carleton can follow in the footsteps of a few other young Americans, such as Christian Pulisic, Tyler Adams and Weston McKennie, who have really taken advantage of the opportunities they were given at their respective clubs.
