Report: Borussia Monchengladbach win race to sign Orlando's Cyle Larin

Cyle Larin - Orlando City - August 5, 2017

TRANSFER TRACKER STATUS:Rumor


Bundesliga side Borussia Monchengladbach have beaten out Turkish giants Besiktas and English promotion hopefuls Leeds United for the services of Canada national team forward Cyle Larin, according to a report from The Sun (UK).


The 22-year-old Larin has spent his three-year pro career entirely with Orlando City SC, scoring 43 goals in 87 league appearances, but this fall had indicated his desire for a transfer to Europe.


That was perhaps no shock after the July arrival of striker Dom Dwyer and reported interest from abroad in Larin in the summer window.


A move to Germany would be a bit of a surprise, however, after reports of a potential switch to join Besiktas and Canada teammate Atiba Hutchinson appeared to have legs.
