Syracuse men’s soccer: Nathan Opoku signs with Leicester City

Nathan Opoku had one of the best seasons you could ask for with the Syracuse Orange men’s soccer team. Double digit goals (11) and 8 assists, an ACC title, a national championship, and an All-American nod led to his interest from all sorts of squads. He deferred the option to be selected in the MLS Superdraft on a Generation Adidas contract, confusing many, as he was a consensus top three pick. We now understand why, as he is officially a Leicester City player.

Leicester City is part of the King Power ownership group who also owns Oud-Heverlee Leuven who plays in the Belgian Pro League.
