Well, it is official.
FC Dallas have transferred homegrown and US men’s national team forward Ricardo Pepi to German Bundesliga side FC Augsburg, it was announced Monday morning by the German side.
The record move sees Pepi join through June 2026 with an additional option year, all via a $20 million fee plus add-ons. That would make Pepi the most expensive outgoing homegrown player from Major League Soccer, at least upfront after Vancouver Whitecaps FC transferred Alphonso Davies to Bayern Munich in 2018.
The move constitutes a club-record transfer for FC Dallas.
