LONDON (AP) — United States defender Tim Ream is leaving Fulham after nine years with the English club to join Charlotte FC in Major League Soccer.
Fulham announced the departure of Ream on Wednesday, with the London team describing the 36-year-old center back as a “legend” and an “outstanding servant.”
“I wish I could thank everyone individually for the part they played in shaping me as player, but more as a person,” said Ream, who made 312 appearances for the club. “For all of that, I am beyond grateful.”
Ream, who recently played for the U.S. national team at the Copa America, lost his place as a regular for Fulham last season.
Fulham said Ream requested to leave.
