Where do the Union stand after the transfer of 25-year-old Roland Alberg?
The Union finalized the signing of Roland Alberg on Thursday, tapping into their Targeted Allocation Money depository to acquire the 25-year-old Dutch midfielder. The former ADO Den Haag player was first linked to the Union about a week ago, as the process accelerated quickly before culminating in an official announcement.
Given the recent revitalization of the attacking midfield and a rumored pursuit of a DP striker, signing an impact midfielder comes as a bit of a surprise. The Union seemed to have had an attacking midfield in place, but Alberg's arrival has caused a shakeup both on the field and on paper.
