What Alexandru Matan’s signing means for the Crew

The Columbus Crew roster looks to be nearly complete, at least to start the 2021 season. The Black & Gold announced on Monday the signing of 21-year-old attacking midfielder Alexandru Matan from Romanian club FC Viitorul Constanta. Matan is a player who has been linked with Major League Soccer for some time and most recently with the Crew.

Columbus reportedly shelled out $1.8 million to land Matan, an impressive fee for a young player. This, combined with the other moves this offseason, likely means the Black & Gold are done adding pieces for this transfer window.
