Midfielder Eric Klein has been named the New England Revolution’s UnitedHealthcare Revolution Academy Player of the Year for the 2023-24 season.
The native of Manheim, Penn., who recently signed his first professional contract with New England's MLS NEXT Pro side, Revolution II, is the 10th different recipient of the award, selected annually by the Revolution Technical Staff to the most outstanding amateur player in the club's Pro Player Pathway during the previous season.
"Eric has taken major strides in his development since joining our residency program and pro pathway two years ago. He has worked diligently to earn his place in the Revolution II squad this season, where he has excelled at the professional level, earning his place on the roster next season," Revolution Technical Director Remi Roy said. "Eric is deserving of this honor for the great strides he has taken in the last year, and we look forward to aiding Eric's continued progression as he further establishes himself with the second team in 2025."
