Gustavo Bou is crucial to the success of New England Revolution
If you’re looking for a sign of things to come, look no further than Gustavo Bou’s goals. Plucked from the River Plate reserves by Diego Simeone at 18, Gustavo Bou joined the Revolution from Liga MX side Club Tijuana for a club-record $7M with the potential to reach $16M with add-ons in July of 2019. With a higher transfer fee than a contemporary such as Seattle Sounders striker Raúl Ruidíaz, Bou was expected to provide a spark to a team desperate to win in the wake of the Bruce Arena hire.
