Minnesota United recently acquired Simon Dawkins, a central attacking player who most recently played for the San Jose Earthquakes.
Spoiler alert: He’s a winger. With this move the Loons now have a total of seven natural wide players on the roster. Jose Leiton, Sam Nicholson, Miguel Ibarra, new arrival Frantz Pangop, and now Dawkins play on the left with Ethan Finlay and Kevin Molino on the right. Molino and Ibarra have both played centrally last year and in past years, but it should be said that neither of them are at their best when in the middle.
