U.S. prospect Sargent agrees to deal with Werder Bremen

U.S. youth international Josh Sargent has agreed to sign with Werder Bremen upon turning 18 in February, the Bundesliga side announced Wednesday.

Sargent will join Bremen after representing the U.S. at next month's U-17 World Cup in India, with the 17-year-old striker set to start training with the club's U-23s in the new year.

He joins Bremen from youth club St. Louis Scott Gallagher Missouri after sources first told Goal an agreement had been reached in May.

"My full concentration is first and foremost on the World Cup and the time I have left in Missouri," Sargent said in a news release.
