FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – If you went to bed early on Tuesday night then one of the most noteworthy deals of the Primary Transfer Window went down while you were sleeping.
Completed at the latest of stages and announced less than an hour before the close of the window at 11:59 p.m. CT, the New England Revolution sent longtime midfielder Lee Nguyen to expansion club Los Angeles FC in exchange for $700,000 in allocation money, with that figure potentially rising as high as $950,000 – plus a first-round SuperDraft pick – based on conditions of the deal.
