Arlington, TX - United States midfielder Weston McKennie admitted that he always checks in with anonymous online dickheads on Twitter and Facebook before making transfer decisions as the Juventus midfielder reportedly soured on FC Cincinnati.

“I was originally just interested in any team that would be interested in me,” stated McKennie, “However I checked in on my Twitter sources that I don’t know personally who constantly plan my career and @USMNTManager stated to his 54 followers that it would be the end of my career if I went to Major League Soccer and now I just don’t know.”

Sources say that McKennie’s interest in the situation was exploratory and respectful for any team that was asking about his services until he reviewed the random USMNT assholes who constantly post unending criticisms of the federation, team and coach to everyone forced to read their thoughts through their blue check account and advertising budget.

“I don’t know if Weston was actually going to go to FC Cincinnati,” stated one anonymous friend. “However, it became very clear that he was only going to be comfortable signing with the teams listed by @USMNTFreedomEagle23451343 as being a move forward in his career.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as McKennie creates an alt account to ask whether it would be ok if McKennie went to Brentford next year or if that would be a disappointment to them.
