Official: Benteke leaves for MLS and joins Wayne Rooney
Christian Benteke leaves the Premier League after ten years. The 31-year-old striker is moving from Crystal Palace to DC United in MLS.
In 2012, Benteke moved from Racing Genk to Aston Villa for over €8m. Three years later, he made an impression and signed for Liverpool for 46 million euros. The striker did not really manage to impose himself there, and a year later, he was transferred to Crystal Palace, where he would eventually play six seasons. In total, Benteke has scored 86 Premier League goals
