McKennie at Aston Villa, Pukstas at Arsenal, Ferreira at Club America

Weston McKennie was a very important player for Juventus last season where he played 38 times and made 10 assists. He also helped them win the Coppa Italia. However, due to his failure to agree a new deal with the club, he could be on his way back to the Premier League.

TuttoJuve reported that “Aston Villa, Everton and Newcastle are watching him closely, Juventus are asking for a figure between 20 and 25 million”.

McKennie did not have the best of spells when he was on loan at Leeds United. English fans may therefore be concerned about their clubs signing the USMNT midfielder.

Rokas Pukstas has yet to play for the USMNT, but has represented the United States at the U20 level. He currently plays club football with Hadjuk Split in Croatia, but a move to the Premier League could be on the cards.

According to the Daily Mail, “European clubs, particularly in Germany, have begun to take note of his performances, as well as scouts from Premier League trio (Aston) Villa, West Ham and Arsenal.”

Many USMNT players have recently moved to Liga MX to ply their trade. Cade Cowell is now with Chivas Guadalajara, while Brandon Vazquez plays for Monterrey. Jesus Ferreira could be the next American player to move from MLS to Mexico.

Edgar Moreno posted on X: “Ferreira is on a shortlist of players Club America are considering for the next campaign. (Andre) Jardine requested competition for Diego Valdes and Henry Martin.
Ferreira can play the 10 or 9 role and would cover both positions.”

Ferreira currently plays for FC Dallas and has scored twice and provided two assists in nine MLS games this year.
