Sources: Atlanta United to Sign American Goalkeeper Josh Cohen
The soccer world is abuzz with rumors that goalkeeper Josh Cohen is on the verge of signing a contract with Atlanta United in Major League Soccer. Cohen, a California native, has made a name for himself by playing in both the Israeli Premier League and the UEFA Champions League. With a potential deal looming, there’s no doubt that Cohen’s career is on the rise.
Goalkeeper Josh Cohen is set to join Atlanta United in Major League Soccer after an impressive spell with Maccabi Haifa in the Israeli Premier League. The California native was named the league’s player of the season in 2020-21 and played a key role in the team’s UEFA Champions League campaign. Following his departure from Maccabi in the summer, Cohen is now on the verge of signing with Atlanta United, with the deal expected to be completed in the coming days. Cohen’s potential move to Atlanta United comes after a complaint was filed in September, alleging that the club violated MLS rules during negotiations. However, it seems that the parties have now resumed talks, with Cohen poised to provide competition for current starting goalkeeper Brad Guzan.
