Atlanta United signs Greg Garza to one-year loan deal from Tijuana

Atlanta United have announced the signing of United States international defender Greg Garza from Club Tijuana on a season-long loan.

The MLS expansion franshise had previously secured Garza's Discovery Priority from Columbus Crew SC for a conditional second round pick in the 2018 MLS SuperDraft.

Garza told Goal.com's Ives Galarcep earlier this month about his desire to move to MLS. And Atlanta has come through to make that wish a reality.

"Greg has represented the United States on several occasions and we're thrilled to be able to add a player of his quality," Atlanta president Darren Eales told the club's website of the deal.
