Philadelphia Union Acquire Milan Iloski on Permanent Transfer

News summary

The Philadelphia Union have permanently signed forward Milan Iloski from Denmark's FC Nordsjælland, with a contract through 2027 and an option for 2028. Iloski, 26, made MLS history by scoring four goals in 12 minutes during his loan at San Diego FC, where he netted 10 goals in just 14 appearances. To secure Iloski, the Union traded with CF Montreal to acquire the top spot in the MLS Waiver Order, exchanging the 21st position plus $100,000 guaranteed and up to $150,000 conditional General Allocation Money. Sporting Director Ernst Tanner praised Iloski as a dynamic goal scorer with a strong ability to convert chances and a willingness to defend. Iloski’s signing adds depth to the Union's attack, which already features top scorers like Tai Baribo and Mikael Uhre, although it raises questions about Baribo's future with the club amid interest from other MLS teams and Brazil. The complex transfer involved San Diego terminating Iloski's loan early to facilitate his move to Philadelphia, highlighting the strategic maneuvering among MLS clubs.
