As he said when he changed:
“I thought I’d change from my bad tracksuit to my own bad clothes!
“The boys could see me on the side, they look at me in my shocking gear and my terrible haircut and my horrible face and think, ‘well, it’s not too bad out there!’
“I fancied a change, 2021. I am...
Or just a bit lazy. He was seen as the new Ruud van Nistelrooy before he had even made his PSV debut. Over his six seasons in PSV he went in and out of the side without ever really improving his perfromances. I can understand the idea behind signing Ali J but Locadia was just a very poor signing.
Probably, if there is a mutual termination, I think he would need to be paid in full. I dont see any indications that he would move on because of some passion to play football. Could be worth it, club would probably save a bit of money from bonuses and feeding him etc. while also avoiding to...
Watching Cincinnati vs Inter Miami.... Cincinnati are completely shit, yet Locadia cant get into their side (he is on the bench). How to get rid of him will be one of the great complexities this summer...
Initial loan was from January to June (or July) and he started well in the few games before Covid, so Cincinnati decided to extend the loan with a full year (until summer 2021). They are likely paying his full wage so Bloom was probably delighted that they wanted to take him on for another year...

A few years ago I was the "leading Eredivisie" expert in Sweden (competition: not much) and I remember that he was considered this mega talent, getting compared with previous PSV strikers like Romario, Ronaldo, Van Nistelrooy etc.
He made a good...
Was always the case when he got there.
I think they deeply regret it as he's been completely shit. 15 straight games without a goal I think. Sure, the fact that the whole team is shit and that Jaap Stam wants the team to play the most boring and defensive football in the MLS wont help him, but...
He was bad in PSV; bad for you last season and gonna be bad the next one as well, but I think there is actually a tiny but decent chance he could be slightly less shit if managed correctly. If he ends up in your starting eleven you're dead though.
