Union Homegrowns Abroad: Jack de Vries building confidence, Aaronson rolling and McKenzie battling for more minutes

Last month, Brenden Aaronson continued to show why he is an integral part of Red Bull Salzburg’s on-the-field success and Mark McKenzie battled for playing time at Genk in Belgium. September also saw a new addition to the homegrowns abroad, with Jack de Vries being sent on loan to Venezia FC and featuring heavily for their U19 team. As Aaronson and McKenzie look to build on the USMNT’s strong performance in a 2-0 win over Jamaica (where Aaronson earned an assist), let’s check in on our Union homegrowns’ European adventures.

Aaronson’s name seems to be written in pen on Matthias Jaissle’s team sheet for both domestic and European competition.
