Signs with Minnesota Pukki has signed with Minnesota United as a Designated Player through the 2025 season.

Impact This had been a rumored move for Pukki for a couple weeks and it's confirmed ahead of the upcoming transfer window. It's a massive get for Minnesota, as central striker has been a problem for them in recent seasons. Pukki is 33 years old, but he still has top-end goal-scoring quality after hitting 10 goals this past season in the English Championship from 41 appearances.
