Minnesota United has acquired homegrown priority to midfielder Aziel Jackson via trade from New York Red Bulls for third round 2022 MLS SuperDraft pick. Jackson has signed a two-year contract with three club options with Minnesota.
“He’s an exciting player when you see him,” said MNUFC Head Coach Adrian Heath. “He’s got an eye for a goal and I’m sure any of our first team defenders will tell you, he’s a bit of a nightmare to play against. He’s perpetual motion. He wants to run and so we are really pleased for him. He’s embraced the group and like our other homegrown players, he’s got the upside and the potential and now has the opportunity.
