Soccer: Convey joins Reading
Just a week after MLS lost one of it's brightest young stars to Europe, another has followed suit. DC United and US National Team midfielder Bobby Convey has finalized a transfer deal to English First Division outfit Reading.
Convey has struggled at United since a transfer deal with Tottenham Hotspur fell apart late last year. He did not meet the requirements to receive a British work permit at the time, crushing his dream of playing in the English Premiership. While Reading may not be a Premiership quality club at the moment, it is certainly a step closer to his goal.
Convey joins fellow American Marcus Hahnemann, a goalkeeper, at the club. He is expected to start at left wing.
