Atlanta United have acquired defensive midfielder Tristan Muyumba from French side EA Guingamp.
The deal announced Thursday, using targeted allocation money, runs through the 2027 MLS season.
The 26-year-old Frenchman recorded four goals and five assists in 72 matches for the Ligue 2 club.
“Tristan is a player we are excited to bring into our team this summer,” Atlanta United VP and technical director Carlos Bocanegra said in a release.
“He’s a versatile midfielder who can cover ground defensively and progress the ball forward in attack. His playing profile and skill set fit well with our team and are a good complement to the group of players we have on the roster.”
