U.S. men’s national team team goalkeeper Zack Steffen will return to MLS after completing a move to the Colorado Rapids from Manchester City, the clubs announced Thursday.
Steffen, 28, has signed a three-year contract through 2026 with a club option for an additional year. In order to facilitate the move, the Rapids acquired Steffen’s MLS discovery rights from the New England Revolution in exchange for $500,000 in general allocation money.
