https://www.mlssoccer.com/news/sources-rbny-defender-kyle-duncan-nearing-move-to-belgian-club looks like Kyle Duncan is set for a free transfer to first division Belgian club KV Oostende (despite interest from French First division club stade Reims)
Fabrizio Romano: Ricardo Pepi to Ajax, important Italian clubs including Inter, or Bundesliga. Bryan Reynolds will probably move in January. Daryl Dike has interest from 2 or 3 Italian clubs. Brenden Aaronson might move in the summer to Bundesliga or EPL. Tuchel is happy with Pulisic who won't move.

Sources: Still no formal offers/serious negotiations from clubs interested in FC Dallas/USMNT forward Ricardo Pepi. Still early, but Wolfsburg have fallen behind a "top six" Premier League club in the chase.Expectation remains no deal will get done without bid of at least $15m.— Tom Bogert (@tombogert) November 20, 2021 @bungadiri Please sticky
Olivier Renard annonce que Mihailovic, Kone et Zouhir vont aller s’entraîner à Bologne, comme Pantemis par le passé. #CFMTL— Matthias Van Halst ✖️❎ (@CoupFrancMLS) November 23, 2021 Mihailovic training at Bologna
Interesting coincidence....Bologna's coach is named Siniša Mihajlović, but I've not seen any familial connection ever mentioned between the two.

More on Mihailovic.... It's probably just a careless use of a slightly different word by the journalist, but a local report out of Bologna specifically uses the phrase that would indicate it's a proper trial for Mihailovic, not just training - "prova a Bologna". Take it as you will...

I notice that Miles Robinson is not on the roster for the Dec 18 friendly. Does that have any meaning? Is he injured? If not, Berhalter did say he wanted to "keep some of the core MLS players moving".....makes me wonder. are there rumors or movements that I have missed?
I think he’s getting a rest. Carlos Bocanegra said that Bello has lots of suitors, but all is quiet on the Miles front.
George Bello to Spain rumors: Per sources, USMNT left back, George Bello is in advanced talks with Celta Vigo from La Liga. A transfer fee in the region of €4.7 million has been agreed between Atlanta United, and only personal details between the club and player need to be sorted. #MLS #USMNT #TransferNews pic.twitter.com/UAleG9F3uh— δяеш (@awndrezawndrez) December 5, 2021
would love that, again, beautiful part of the country and very good food if he goes. Our guys are certainly making great lifestyle moves. And that guy needs a move and change of scenery too. He was on the Busio "time to go" cusp to continue the upward trajectory.

If it happens, it will be an important transfer/loan imo. transfers of young players are as much is not more about potential. For older players it isn't nearly as much about future potential but quality now. At some point, there will be a tipping point where top MLS players are looked at as players to buy for their current quality. When that happens, we will be able to say that MLS has arrived on an equal footing to European leagues. I'm not saying that will mean we are top 4, or will be when that happens but that MLS will be recognized as having and developing top quality players that can step into equivalent or higher level leagues in Europe. (I hope I am making sense...)
