World Cup veteran Traustason on joining Revolution | “It was almost a no brainer”

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – When rumors began circulating back in mid-January that the New England Revolution were interested in Icelandic winger Arnór Ingvi Traustason, enthusiastic supporters immediately began expressing their excitement on social media, tagging the player in the process.

Although a deal wasn’t officially announced until Tuesday morning, Traustason kept track of those social media posts for the better part of two months, and he took notice of how eager Revolution fans were to see him join up with the MLS side.

“I’ve been following on social media, being tagged on Twitter and being tagged on Instagram and so on, so it’s really nice to see,” Traustason said in an exclusive interview with the club.
