Across State Lines: Zelalem Signs in the Netherlands

As the transfer window for much of Europe closed yesterday, a former Sporting KC player returned to Europe, joining a new club. Former midfielder, Gedion Zelalem, has returned to Europe, signing with FC Den Bosch in the Netherlands. Den Bosch is currently 16th of 20 teams in the Eerste Divisie, the second division in the Netherlands. Zelalem has spent the last three years with New York City FC after his option wasn’t picked up by Kansas City. Zelalem played nineteen times for NYCFC over those three seasons, starting twice.

Elsewhere in the transfer window, as it closed, former Kansas City homegrown player, Gianluca Busio did not make the rumored move from Venezie to Pisa in Serie B.
