Brenden Aaronson finds a route back to the Champions League! USMNT star to join Union Berlin on loan from Leeds following Premier League relegation

Leeds United began pre-season training on Monday at Leeds Beckett University but several players including USMNT star Brenden Aaronson did not turn up for training on day one. Aaronson is all set to join Bundesliga outfit Union Berlin on loan this summer, according to The Athletic.

Aaronson arrived in England in May last year as he completed a move to Leeds United from Red Bull Salzburg on a five-year deal. Unfortunately for the player, his debut campaign did not go to plan as he managed to score just two goals and provide three assists in 41 appearances for the Whites.Fulham, at one point, were interested in signing the winger but have since decided to pull out of the deal.

Along with Aaronson, players like Diego Llorente and Robin Kock are also set to depart the club this summer. While Llorente is expected to join Roma on a temporary basis, Koch could follow Aaronson to Germany and join Eintracht Frankfurt.With a move to Union Berlin, Aaronson will be able to continue to ply his trade at the top division and also feature in the Champions League next season.
