D.C. United has completed a trade with Atlanta United for the rights to winger Yamil Asad, the two MLS sides announced on Tuesday.
Asad spent 2017 on loan from Argentina Superliga club Velez with the expansion MLS side during its debut season.
In exchange, D.C. sends Atlanta $200,000 of general allocation money (GAM) and $100,000 in targeted allocation money (TAM) in 2018, and an additional $100,000 of both GAM and TAM in 2019. If Asad plays a game in MLS for D.C. in 2020, it will send another $100,00 of GAM to Atlanta.
The D.C.'s loan deal with Velez includes a purchase option.
