The Colorado Rapids acquired forward Calvin Harris from FC Cincinnati on Wednesday in exchange for $200,000 in general allocation money and other considerations.
FC Cincinnati receive $100,000 in GAM in both 2023 and 2024, plus up to an additional $175,000 if Harris reaches certain performance metrics.
FCC also retains a percentage of any future transfer fee if Harris is sold or traded by the Rapids.
“Calvin is a versatile and dynamic forward who has only begun to scratch the surface of his potential,” Rapids general manager Padraig Smith said in a news release. “He’s a player we monitored closely ahead of the 2021 SuperDraft given his qualities and we’re excited to bring him into an environment where we believe he can develop and take the next step in his career.”
Harris, 22, contributed one goal and one assists in 24 matches (six starts) during the 2021 and 2022 seasons.
The England native was the No. 2 overall pick in the 2021 MLS SuperDraft following his collegiate career at Wake Forest.
