Freddy Adu Will Play Abroad

It appears Freddy Adu will be playing abroad after all. Adu had recently turned 18 and by FIFA rules is now eligible to be traded international and play on the worlds biggest stage.

We recently learned that Freddy Adu has agreed to a deal with Benfica for $2 million. The Portuguese team signed the deal with Freddy’s newest team, Real Salt Lake, of the MLS. This finally gives the 18 year old Adu the chance to play where he’s always wanted, in front of the world.

Amidst many media folk discussing the dissapointment in his career, Freddy Adu is making strives to improve his game by playing soccer in better competition. This might be his chance to show that he belongs with the best in the world. After becoming such a huge star at the age of 14 when DC United signed him on he has had an up and down career. This could be what he needs to show he is the star he had the potential to be.
