Paxten Aaronson will reportedly head to the Dutch Eredivisie to earn consistent playing time elsewhere.
Aaronson is set to join Vitesse Arnhem on loan for the remainder of the current season, Sky Sports reported Thursday. The 20-year-old joined Eintracht Frankfurt in January 2022 from the Philadelphia Union, but has struggled to feature regularly for the Bundesliga side.
Aaronson has made seven league appearances and 14 combined appearances for Frankfurt this season. A former U.S. Under-20 men’s national team standout, Aaronson has registered three assists in 22 appearances (542 minutes played) for the Super Eagles.
A move to Vitesse would help Aaronson get back to playing regularly ahead of a potential busy summer on the international level. Aaronson, who made his senior USMNT debut in January 2023, is eligible to be part of the 2024 Olympic roster this summer.
Vitesse has struggled for majority of the current Eredivisie campaign, sitting bottom of the table and seven points from safety. They are also involved in February’s KNVB Cup quarterfinals.
Aaronson would be the first American player to feature for the club since Matt Miazga did from 2016-18.
