Twellman: Revs will “100% sign a Designated Player at the No. 9 position.”

Will the New England Revolution sign a Designated Player striker? The answer depends on who you ask.

During halftime of the Revs’ game against Sporting KC, ESPN commentator Taylor Twellman said that his former club will “100% sign a Designated Player at the No. 9 position.” Revolution head coach and sporting director Bruce Arena refuted the statement during his post-game press conference.

The Revs recently sold Adam Buksa to RC Lens of the French first division. The Polish striker was an important piece for the Revolution as he lead the team with 16 goals last year and had seven goals this year before departing.
