Matej Oravec has been loaned out to an unknown team in order to meet roster rules for international players, Philadelphia Union head coach Jim Curtin confirmed after Sunday night’s scoreless draw.
“It’s not official yet so I don’t want to announce that publicly,” Curtin said when asked the name of the team.
The Union entered the 2021 season with nine international players but only eight available. Seven international players dressed for the Columbus Crew game. An eighth international player — Cory Burke — has been hurt and is also awaiting a green card.
