AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Sebastián Driussi is rejoining Argentine club River Plate after four years with Austin in Major League Soccer.
The 28-year-old Driussi scored 51 goals with 22 assists over 115 games in all competitions. He was an All-Star in 2022.
In its announcement Friday, Austin claimed it will receive a team-record transfer fee but did not announce a figure. The move opened a designated player spot.
Driussi played for River Plate from 2013-17 and then joined Russian club Zenit St. Petersburg.
He had a $4.5 million base salary last year and $6,722,500 in total compensation.
