What happened: Nelson told Austin he wanted a move to Europe. Austin allowed the transfer after Bolton met its asking price.
Why it matters: The move would take a winger out of Austin's squad during the MLS regular season. It would also return the Canada international to European club soccer.
By the numbers: Austin acquired Nelson for $1.25 million in allocation money and the No.
What to watch: The clubs still need to complete the transfer and announce final terms.
