Juan Agudelo (F)-  Unattached (Rumored: NYCFC)

Age: 21

Best fit for: England, Holland, Germany, Spain

So technically, this is round 2 for Juan.  But Agudelo has proven once that he has what it takes for Europe, barring political mumbo-jumbo (darn you, English Work Visa Gods).  Most likely, Juan is going to move back to MLS for the time being, (preferably NYCFC) where he already has a built in European connection in parent club Manchester City.  Since Juan has been playing a couple years already, it’s hard to imagine the kid is only 21.  It’s not like he’s racing against time or anything.

However, Aqudelo seems keen to play in Europe instead of MLS. Yet, his lack of playing time is not good in the eyes of Klinsmann.
