Sources: Former Mexico, Chivas striker Omar Bravo to join Phoenix Rising

Chivas' all-time leading scorer is headed back to the United States to join the newly rebranded USL side.

Former Mexico international and Chivas forward Omar Bravo is set to sign with USL side Phoenix Rising, sources tell Goal USA.

The 36-year-old signed on loan with the Carolina RailHawks of the NASL in August of 2016 and scored four goals in 14 appearances for the club in the fall season. The club announced Thursday that it could not come to terms with Chivas to extend the loan.

After the season, he returned to Mexico where rumors linked him with a stay at Chivas, where he is the all-time leading scorer with 132 goals, or a move to UDG, a second-division club in Guadalajara.
