The Colorado Rapids have agreed to a club-record deal to acquire English winger Morgan Whittaker from Middlesbrough. This move marks a significant investment for the MLS club.
The 25-year-old is currently undergoing a medical in London before finalizing the transfer. Whittaker enjoyed a productive campaign for his English side last season, contributing 14 goals and seven assists in 40 appearances.
This addition is a core part of the attacking overhaul led by manager Matt Wells. The coaching staff has prioritized wide play this summer, and Whittaker is expected to become the focal point of the team's attack upon his arrival.
Colorado is currently sitting in seventh place in the Western Conference. While the team has been defensively consistent, they have been looking to add more offensive firepower to push up the table.
