Aron Johansson is out for the season: Should the Union bring him to MLS?

The former AZ Alkmaar striker has been ruled out for the rest of the season by Werder Bremen. Should the Union target him as a Designated Player?

Aron Johansson has been plagued with injury problems ever since making a €4.2 million move from AZ Alkmaar to Werder Bremen over the summer. Shortly after transferring to Germany he had hip surgery, which kept the Icelandic-American sidelined since October. Recurring injury problems have kept him off the field, and Bremen has now issued a statement stating that he will not be available for the rest of the season.
