Reports: Atlanta United acquires Justin Meram from Columbus Crew SC

Atlanta United jumped in the fray ahead of the MLS player transfer/trade window on Tuesday, acquiring veteran forward Justin Meram from Columbus Crew SC according to multiple reports.

The trade was first reported by Ives Galarcep, with the AJC’s Doug Roberson adding that Atlanta will send allocation money and a MLS SuperDraft pick to the Crew.

I'm told Justin Meram is on the move, hearing #Crew96 is working on a deal to send him to Atlanta United #UniteAndConquer . No word on the price. Meram would give Atlanta some midfield depth while Ezequiel Barco is at the Under-20 World Cup, and beyond.
