Earlier today, Loudoun United announced that they had acquired Erik Sorga from FC Flora in Estonia. He is a 20 year old forward who already has a goalscoring pedigree despite his tender age. He made his professional debut as a 17 year old back on Jan 1st 2017 and scored his first goal on his 3rd appearance. He has gone on to score 78 goals in 91 appearances in all competitions, showing that he knows where the back of the net is.
Not only does he know where the net is, he knows how to win too, having won the league title and the golden boot in 2019. He starts his career off in USL but I don’t think it’ll be long before he comes onto the MLS scene.

Loudoun United FC have announced the signing of Estonian National Team forward Erik Sorga on a permanent transfer from FC Flora Tallinn in the Estonian Meistriliiga (First Division) pending league and federation approval and the receipt of his P-1 Visa and International Transfer Certificate (ITC).
“We are looking forward to adding Erik to the roster ahead of the 2020 season,” Stewart Mairs, Loudoun United FC Technical Director, said. “He is a dynamic attacking talent with an extremely impressive goalscoring record at the club level in Estonia. He already has six caps with the Estonian National Team at just 20-years-old and has a high ceiling for development and improvement. We are excited to integrate him with the rest of the squad and see what he can do this season.”
