Julian Green makes permanent move to Greuther Furth

1 Shares

Julian Green is headed back to Greuther Furth next season, but this time on a permanent basis.

The U.S. Men’s National Team midfielder, who scored against France a week ago, was sold to the 2.Bundesliga side from Stuttgart on Sunday.

“The loan move of Julian to Fürth definitely made sense for all involved and it is thus logical that he should play for that club in the future. We wish Julian all the very best for his future career,” Stuttgart sporting director Michael Reschke said.

After struggling to find playing time in recent years, Green played 24 matches for Greuther Furth last season and found the back of the net on three occasions.

Green’s form in the 2.Bundesliga earned him a USMNT call-up for the recent set of friendlies against Bolivia, Republic of Ireland and France.

  1. So far aside from a couple goals, Green has been pretty non-productive. I thought, again aside from the goal, that he was the weakest player for the US. If you watch, he seldom showed for a pass and the one chance he got was no exception as he arrived late and only a poor touch by the French back provided the opportunity.

    He will have to show a lot more if he is ever going to leave the 2.Bundesliga or play a role in the USMNT’s future.

    • I do wonder how recovered he was from the injury that kept him out of the Ireland match. He was not tentative against Bolivia (I know it was Bolivia). You would think of all the US players that he would not have been intimidated or star struck.

  2. The onus is now on Green he is a grown up His performance will dictate his pay check(s). It is up to him if he wants to play in a top league or keep bouncing around lower division leagues.

  3. A healthy and in form Green could be a good complementary player for the USMNT. Having an attacking midfield comprised of Pulisic, Weah, Green, Saief & Gooch/Arriola is a nice starting point for the beginning of a new cycle.

    If we can potentially add Amon, Taitague, & De La Fuente to the conversation over the next couple of years we could have a very nice attacking pool to choose from.
