The acquisition of Wilfrid Kaptoum definitely raised a few eyebrows among New England Revolution fans. Anytime you can get a player who has ties to FC Barcelona, there is reason to be excited. So far the move seems to be going well with Kaptoum making an impression on his teammates right away.
Injuries have held back Kaptoum, but at the age of 24, he still has a lot of soccer left to play. His experience playing at the highest levels of soccer should help him as he adjusts to playing in MLS.
Kaptoum has appeared in the Champions League as well as the Copa del Rey while with Barcelona.
