For Atlanta United, the arrival of Embolo would mean a clear strengthening of the forward line. The club from the United States is known for its attacking playing style and usually full stadiums. In the competition where physical strength and high intensity are central, an experienced international striker like Embolo fits the profile of an immediate asset. It would give Atlanta additional options at the point of attack and provide more variety in the offensive game.
