MLS club make formal Driussi offer - Austin FC club in question?
According to very reliable South American transfer expert César Luis Merlo an unnamed Major League Soccer team has made an offer to sign Zenit St. Petersburg forward Sebastián Driussi. Merlo wrote on Twitter that Russian club Zenit and Driussi are currently analyzing the offer. A transfer at this point seems likely.
Driussi has been linked with a transfer to MLS before. In January 2020, Driussi confirmed to Russian outlet Sport Express that he had received an offer from Inter Miami CF. Miami, however, have since been punished for breaching MLS salary cap regulations and are unlikely to afford Driussi. Instead, expansion side Austin FC are the favorites to sign the Argentine. Zenit paid $16.5 million to sign the forward from River Plate in 2017.
