The New England Revolution have agreed to transfer striker Adam Buksa to Ligue 1 side RC Lens, the MLS club announced on Tuesday.
New England did not disclose the transfer fee, but the Boston Globe reported that the figure was $10 million.
That represents a healthy profit on the reported $4.5 million the Revs paid in late 2019 to acquire Buksa from Polish side Pogoń Szczecin.
Since Buksa’s arrival he has become one of the top strikers in MLS, scoring 29 goals and adding eight assists in 64 total league appearances.
The 25-year-old also became a Poland international during his time with the Revs, and has now scored five goals in eight appearances as he chases a roster spot for the 2022 World Cup.
Another major sale for the Revs
The Revolution won the MLS Supporters’ Shield in 2021, setting a new league record by amassing 73 points.
Since then, the Revs have made three major sales of players who were key to the team’s success last season.
Canadian star Tajon Buchanan joined Belgian power Club Brugge after last season, while goalkeeper Matt Turner will soon depart for Arsenal.
Buchanan and Turner each cost a reported $7 million, meaning the Revs have now secured around $24 million in transfer fees in less than a year.
