He’s probably making 5x the salary he was at Union and even if he gets relegated he’s still going to be making significantly more money.
Also no guarantee Union won’t regress into relegation candidates themselves. They were incredible this year but we’ve seen teams like them in English football before - Ipswich and Blackpool spring to mind.
And maybe I think he also wants to prove that he can still make it in the PL. If he can continue his good season with Forest, he might just earn himself a move to a higher profile PL team, who knows.
That is a bit of a strange one considering he is looking for a deal to allow him to keep fit, yet the US season ends on October so will have a few weeks before the WC.
Would have been better to go to Cardiff as he would get game time, plus Cardiff and Welsh FA share the training centre, so the Welsh coaching staff could have kept a eye on his fitness and workload
The regular season ends in mid October, but the play offs will go for another 3-4 weeks right up to about a week before clubs have to release their players. LA are certain to qualify and even if they unexpectedly go out in the first round, that will still only give him about 3 weeks of down time before having to report for Wales.

This is an interesting one. One of the biggest Dutch talents. Son of the former player Regillio Simons and played most of his football life in the youth academy of Barcelona before switching to PSG a few years ago. Need to play since he is 19 years old now.
I’m going to follow him when PSV plays in Europe what starst in the pre rounds CL.
