The NC State University sports newspaper "Wolfpacker" reports that LA Galaxy draft pick Aaron King "...went to Norway for a tryout prior to the MLS combine and is considering his options overseas.". Anybody have any details on this?
He trialed at the same club in Norway that Nat Borchers is supposedly going to sign with (Odd Grenland). However he did take part in the MLS combine and was drafted in the "regular" round. Probably he would have been taken higher if he hadn't gone to Europe. He doesn't have a contract in the U.S. or Norway or anywhere else at the moment so I guess it's still up in the air. I got the impression Odd Grenland wasn't going to offer him a contract, however. Could be wrong.
If there's been confirmation on the club's site, I've missed it -- which would not surprise me in the least.
