D.C. United trading Chris Durkin to St. Louis for two players and cash

The sides cannot formalize the move until the MLS trade window opens Monday.

Durkin, 23, had two spells with United: At age 16, the Richmond-area native signed a homegrown contract and became one of the youngest players in league history. He spent three years in Washington, making 36 regular season appearances and 23 starts.

He then moved to Belgian club Sint-Truiden, first on loan, then on a permanent transfer, before returning to Washington in spring 2022.
