MLS expansion club Inter Miami added to its scoring capabilities Friday with the acquisition of forward Lewis Morgan from Scottish powerhouse Celtic.
The club also acquired U.S. international midfielder and longtime Columbus Crew player Wil Trapp in a trade in which Inter sent $100,000 in general allocation money and an international roster spot the other way.
Columbus could receive up to an additional $200,000 if other undisclosed conditions are met.
The 23-year-old Morgan, who was acquired for an undisclosed fee, plays on the wing, and has made 31 appearances for Celtic over the past two seasons. He also spent time last season with third-tier Sunderland in England and has made two appearances with the Scotland national team.
"Lewis is an exciting player that will contribute to our attack," said sporting director Paul McDonough in a statement. "He is a pacey and dynamic player who operates well in space. He has shown his quality in Scotland and in England and we're happy to acquire him."
