First, let’s dispense with a couple of jokes:
- Any self-respecting Minnesotan would strongly prefer if his name was Jan Grejduk.
- Now that we have Gregus, we need to sign more players from the same liquor brand, like ex-Montreal Impact right back Bacardi Sagna.
With the humor sorted out, Minnesota United have picked up their third Designated Player in club history, signing FC Copenhagen midfielder Jan Gregus. Reports from The Athletic’s Jeff Rueter put the transfer fee in the seven-digit range, a fairly steep price for a usually cost-averse club.
