Report: Luciano Acosta leaving D.C. United

In a move that will surprise no one, Luciano Acosta’s year of frustration is set to end with the midfielder leaving D.C. United, as he told The Athletic’s Pablo Maurer. United seems likely to retain Acosta’s MLS rights, as they have made him offers; however, in addition to European clubs being on the table, apparently there are unnamed MLS clubs interested as well. Even with Acosta being out of contract, I would think that it would require more than is typically traded for discovery list priority for Acosta to be traded within the league.
