TRANSFER TRACKER STATUS: Signing

FC Dallas have acquired forward Daniel Job from Norwegian second-division side Kongsvinger IL, the club announced Wednesday.

Job is under contract through the 2029-30 season with an option for 2030-21. He will occupy U22 Initiative and international slots.

As part of the transaction, FC Dallas acquired Job’s Discovery Priority Rights from Red Bull New York in exchange for $125,000 in 2027 General Allocation Money (GAM).

The 21-year-old Nigerian winger was in his first season with Kongsvinger and featured in 20 matches, registering 8g/9a.

“Daniel is a promising young winger who has excelled in Norway and generated a lot of interest from clubs across Europe,” said chief soccer officer Andre Zanotta. 

“We believe he has a lot of upside and the qualities to continue developing at FC Dallas, and we’re excited to have him here. His speed and ability to attack defenders will give us another dynamic option in the final third and add another element to our attack.”

FC Dallas are currently fifth (34 points; 9W-6L-7D) in a jam-packed Western Conference.
