FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Henry Kessler became the New England Revolution’s eighth offseason signing when he was selected with the sixth overall pick in Thursday’s MLS SuperDraft presented by adidas, bringing the Revs’ roster up to 27 players ahead of the start of preseason next weekend.
Fellow draft picks Simon Lekressner and Keegan Meyer could potentially bring that number up to 29 – should they earn roster spots – meaning that Bruce Arena and his staff are very close to completing their roster before camp begins, and still seven weeks out from the season opener in Montreal.
