SGOn July 28, American midfielder Sebastian Berhalter signed a four-year contract with Middlesbrough, an English Championship club. The move comes after Berhalter participated in all five of the U.S. team's World Cup matches, contributing a goal and an assist during their group-stage game against Turkey. Berhalter, who previously played for Major League Soccer's Vancouver Whitecaps, helped the team reach the MLS Cup final with 16 goal contributions last season. He is set to reunite with former teammate Aidan Morris, with whom he shared playing experiences at Columbus Crew and with the U.S. national team. Berhalter expressed his admiration for Middlesbrough, having followed the club closely over the past two years.
