Bethlehem Steel FC announced the transfer of Brandon Allen to Nashville for an undisclosed fee this morning.
After a strong start to the 2018 campaign against Richmond that saw him net two goals, Allen fell out of favor with the side and now will try and find footing with psuedo-MLS side Nashville SC.
Simply put, Allen just isn’t the right fit for what Bethlehem (or Red Bull for that matter) needed from their target men. Clinical finishing is great — I really don’t think there’s many guys better with their back to defenders — but the defensive work rate just isn’t there.
