Former Red Bull Salzburg professional Brenden Aaronson is expected to spend the coming season at 1. FC Union Berlin. Like the portal “The AthleticThe 22-year-old attacking midfielder is reportedly on loan from Leeds United.
About the rumour: B. Aaronson on Union Berlin
A year ago, the US international cost around 32.8 million euros, a record for Salzburg. After the Whites were relegated from the Premier League, Aaronson is probably unstoppable despite his contract running until 2027. At Union, the right foot from New Jersey is back in the Champions League after 2021/22. In coach Urs Fischer’s squad, Aaronson would be by far the most valuable player with a market value of €25m.

At Leeds, Aaronson was seeded for much of the season, playing in attacking midfield or on the right wing. In the final spurt of the fight against relegation, in which the traditional club only got two points from six games, he only came off the bench. In a total of 40 competitive games for the north of England, he scored one goal and three assists. For Salzburg it was 13 goals and 15 assists in 66 games. Most recently, Aaronson’s market value fell from 30 million to 25 million euros.

Given the conditions, Aaronson’s upcoming commitment fits very well into Union’s previous transfer philosophy of bargain hunting. The attacking midfielder, who can also play centrally and on the wing, will bring a new element to Berlin’s midfield, which currently lacks a creative player like Aaronson. Aaronson, nicknamed ‘Medford Messi’, is a gifted player whose energetic and unyielding style of play suits both Union’s fighting spirit and teamwork well, as well as a new creative element in a midfield that is particularly important against those below opponent has been missing so far. However, the move will only work if Aaronson manages to repeat his productive numbers from MLS and Salzburg.
