Nathan Nkanji’s journey with the Philadelphia Union is apparently continuing for at least two more years.
After impressing in a friendly with UPSL team Florida Premier FC against Philadelphia Union II early last month in Clearwater, Nkanji has signed a two-year contract, the club announced on Tuesday.
The 2001-born Nkanji previously played for Chargers SC, the youth club of first team defender Nathan Harriel before he was recruited to join the Union Academy.
The Philadelphia Union II opens their season in the inaugural MLS Next Pro league against FC Cincinnati 2 on March 27 at Subaru Park at 2 p.
