Foxborough, Mass. • Former Real Salt Lake and U.S. national team forward Bobby Wood agreed Monday to a one-year contract with Major League Soccer’s New England Revolution.
The deal includes a 2024 team option.
The 30-year-old from Hawaii, selected in stage two of last week’s reentry draft, scored five goals in 31 regular-season appearances with Real Salt Lake during the past two seasons plus a goal in the playoffs.
He played in Germany with 1860 Munich, Erzgebirge Aue, Union Berlin, Hamburg and Hannover.
