According to Sam Stejskal, National Writer for MLSsoccer.com, Portland Timbers forward Fanendo Adi has requested a transfer, preferably as a trade to another MLS team. Portland is “currently engaged in trade discussions with several teams around the league,” to get a deal done before the secondary transfer window closes on August 8.
The 27-year-old was on pace to become the all-time leading scorer for the Timbers across all eras last year before sustaining an injury against the LA Galaxy in August. Adi missed the final 11 games of the 2017 season, including the playoff series loss to Houston.
