20-Year-Old
Atlético Madrid
La Liga
Moves across the pond
Vargas has completed a transfer to Atletico Madrid from Seattle, according to his new club.
ANALYSIS
Vargas is off to Spain after his time in MLS play with Seattle, inking a deal with Atletico until 2030. He has been a starter each of the past two seasons with his former club, recording six goals and five assists in 62 appearances across the two seasons. This will leave a major gap for Seattle, possibly forcing Kalani Kossa-Rienzi into that role. However, with Atletico he is likely to see a bit less time, likely to sit in a rotational role fighting for time with Johnny Cardoso.
