After speculation that Jordan Morris might head to Europe in the January transfer window, it was announced that he is set to join Swansea. The Welsh club are promotion hopefuls having been relegated to the Championship following the 2017-2018 Premier League season. Of course, the reaction from USMNT fans has been their unified full backing of the move with everyone excited to tune into ESPN+ as soon as Morris steps onto the pitch in Wales.
That can’t be right. This is Jordan Morris we’re talking about. He has a dog and plays in MLS and didn’t go to Europe when he was 16 because of a great-grand uncle being from Fürstentum Rügen.
