COLUMBUS – Columbus Crew 2 has signed forward Patrick Bohui to an MLS NEXT Pro professional contract. The 19-year-old joins the defending MLS NEXT Pro Cup champions after most recently playing with Portuguese side F.C. Vizela’s Under-23 squad. 

“We are excited to have Patrick join us in Columbus. He is a young player who has gained valuable experience both in the United States and abroad, and we look forward to helping Patrick further progress and continue to develop his game with Crew 2,” said General Manager Corey Wray.
