Johnny Cardoso’s Big Leap: Atleti Bound!

Massive news for USMNT fans—Johnny Cardoso, aka “El Motor,” just sealed a $34.8M move to Atletico Madrid! After bossing Betis’ midfield, he’s now set to learn under Simeone and join a stacked Atleti squad. Spurs missed their shot, so it’s La Liga for Cardoso. Can this transfer help him finally lock down a starting spot for the Stars and Stripes with the 2026 World Cup looming? Let’s talk: is Cardoso ready for the big stage, or will the midfield rivalry with Adams and McKennie keep him on the fringe? #Sports #Soccer #USMNT
