Multiple outlets are reporting that an agreement is in place that would transfer FC Dallas defender George John to the Blackburn Rovers of the English Premier League.

John told Big D Soccer that he already is a Greek citizen, so obtaining the proper paperwork should be little more than a formality. John is currently making just $42,000 a year, so a move to the EPL would likely mean a huge pay raise. Previous reports have suggested that Blackburn was offering about $2 million to acquire John’s rights.
