The Fabian Johnson almost rumor

Could one of the best American players be moving to MLS? Probably not, but maybe.

In a very carefully written story for The Washington Post, Steven Goff indicated that Fabian Johnson might be considering a move to MLS. It’s very unlikely, and would happen “probably not in the near future... maybe down the road.”

According to Goff, newly minted MLS club Atlanta United “explored the possibility... of acquiring [Johnson]”. However, another source “says there’s probably nothing to it.”

Johnson is under contract until the summer of 2018, but recently his playing time has fallen off ever so slightly.
