Nashville SC Acquire Dru Yearwood From New York Red Bulls | OneFootball

The 23 year old Englishman arrives to Nashville as a U22 Initiative Player (joining Rodrigo Piniero on the roster as the only other U22 member). Yearwood never truly seemed to live up to the initial title of Young DP while in New York. He finishes his time with the Red Bulls with 99 games played, 3 goals, & 3 assists. The move makes sense for the Red Bulls as Yearwood fell down the depth chart, behind talents like Frankie Amaya and Daniel Edelman. Yearwood was also eating up a huge contract in New York, clearing up some space for the Red Bulls to make some reinforcement moves this off-season.

Nashville SC are kings of picking up disgruntled assets within MLS. With Dax McCarty leaving this off-season, Yearwood could see a major tick up of minutes and role in 2024. The potential is clearly there for the young man, but can Gary Smith unlock it? That is the question we will have to wait and see.
