The American championship is going through a period of off-season, which coincides in part with the opening of the winter transfer window in Europe, so in the near future we can expect an intensified search for new high-quality football players in the open spaces of the United States..

One of these is the Dallas striker Ricardo Pepi, who, at the age of 18, already has seven matches in the main team of the country, for which he managed to score three goals..

German Wolfsburg became the first who this winter became interested in the opportunity to sign this player, but almost immediately got a competitor in the person of compatriots from Augsburg, who managed to be much more persistent in the matter of transfer.



According to the Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, the deal between the Bavarian and American teams was completed rather quickly, as Augsburg immediately offered $ 20 million in compensation, which could potentially become a club record for Dallas in terms of the most expensive sale in its history..

Today Pepi will undergo a medical examination, after which the last details of the deal will be settled..

Last season, MLS, the American issued 13 goals scored and two assists in 31 games played. The Transfermarkt portal estimates the player whose contract was calculated until 2026 at $ 10 million.
