Nouhou, the last missing piece to the Seattle Sounders ideal XI, has joined the team just in time for their trip to Honduras for the first leg of their Concacaf Champions League Round of 16 matchup against Motagua. The Cameroon international met up with his teammates shortly before their plane left from Southern California to Tegucigalpa.
Although Nouhou has not trained with the Sounders since they were eliminated from the MLS playoffs last November, he has logged more competitive minutes than any of his teammates in the meantime. Nouhou was one of the breakout stars of the recently concluded Africa Cup of Nations, starting Cameroon’s first six games and helping them take third in the tournament.
