Juan Agudelo finally has a chance to play soccer in a foreign country. The catch? He’ll still be in Major League Soccer.
Agudelo, a striker who has long expressed a desire to compete overseas, but has run into hurdle after hurdle along the way, could be set to move to Canada next season after Toronto FC selected him Tuesday in Stage Two of the MLS Re-Entry Draft.
The New England Revolution cut Agudelo, 27, last month when it made 2020 contract decisions.
New England has been Agudelo’s home for most of the past six years.
