Just a few months ago, Albert Rusnak was rumoured to have been on his way back to Europe after just one full season in Major League Soccer. Fast forward to December and the Slovakian international is now contracted through the 2021 season at Real Salt Lake.
This move makes complete sense when looking at the impact Rusnak has had in just two seasons with RSL. In 2017, he contributed 14 assists and seven goals. His 14 assists tied for the third most by an individual player in the league.
In 2018, Rusnak made a splash, scoring 10 goals coming during the regular season.
