Berhalter Heads to England | MLS News

Sebastian Berhalter, the 25-year-old USMNT midfielder, is set to make a bold leap from MLS to Middlesbrough in England’s Championship — a move that could define his career. After dazzling at the World Cup with a goal and assist, and leading Vancouver to the MLS Cup final, Berhalter is now joining a promotion-chasing Boro squad for a reported $2 million.
