Both sides added key players to their attack during the transfer window. Rumor has it one of Charlotte FC’s additions still has fans on their toes. Supporters eagerly await the debut of Designated Player and Premier League star Wilfried Zaha, who has been the talk of the town since his arrival at Charlotte FC. Additionally, Charlotte sold the discovery rights of midfielder Miguel Almiron to Atlanta United, who added the dynamic player to their roster right away. Not only did they add “Miggy,” but for a record transfer fee, they signed Emmanuel Latte Lath.
