“Jhonder has been an outstanding forward at the highest level in European and South American competitions, and we believe his game is tailor-made for Major League Soccer,” said Nashville SC General Manager Mike Jacobs. “The combination of his athleticism and his clinical ability in the area made him highly sought after. We feel fortunate to be able to add him to our club.”
Cádiz, who scored two goals in 15 appearances for Dijon last season in Ligue 1, racked up 10 the previous season for Portugal’s Vitoria Setubal, prompting him to sign a five-year contract with Benfica in June 2019. .
