If you haven’t heard by now, Columbus Crew SC goalkeeper Zack Steffen is a wanted man. According to a report from MLSSoccer.com’s Sam Stejskal, English Championship club Bristol City made a near $4 million offer to Major League Soccer and the Black & Gold for the 23 year old. Since then, reports have come out that the number sits at $3.9 million.
It’s no surprise Steffen is attracting interest from European clubs. Even at a young age, the goalkeeper spent time with German side SC Freiburg, starting for the club’s second team and working as their third-string goalkeeper before his return to the United States and Crew SC.
