D.C. United announced today that forward Erik Sorga is heading to IFK Göteborg in Sweden’s Allsvenskan on a permanent transfer. The move came following the end of Sorga’s loan to Netherlands second division side VVV Venlo, where Sorga scored three goals in 11 games. While playing in the Netherlands, Sorga also scored three times in appearances with Estonia’s national team in World Cup Qualifying games against Belgium (twice) and Belarus. Neither team announced terms of the deal
The 22-year-old striker came to the D.C. organization originally as a Loudoun United signing (for a reported fee of $500,000) in January 2020, with a quick promotion to the first side which coincided with the resolution of the Collective Bargaining Agreement between MLS and its Players Association.
