This one is done. Yevgen Cheberko, the 28-year-old Ukraine defender, has completed his switch from Columbus Crew to LAFC, a move within Major League Soccer. The status is confirmed: there is nothing left to negotiate, no rejection to overturn and no rival to fend off. Cheberko simply changes colours from one league side to another, with the deal now settled rather than merely agreed in principle. The news carries weight because of who has put their name to it. Tom Bogert, a strongly reliable voice, broke the latest detail just a minute ago, and crucially the selling club themselves — Columbus Crew, about as authoritative a source as exists — have confirmed it. When the player's own former employer says a deal is done, you can take it to the bank. The engine reads this at 100%, and that figure means exactly what it says: this is no longer a probability but a fact already on the books. There is no fee dispute left to derail it, no medical still to fail, no late counter-bid that could swing it. The number sits at the ceiling precisely because the move has crossed the finish line, with official confirmation backing it up. For context on Cheberko's value, his career has moved in modest sums: NK Osijek to Columbus for £1m in 2023, and LASK to NK Osijek for £1m in 2022. LAFC themselves can spend far bigger when they choose — witness their £19m signing from Tottenham in 2025. With the deal confirmed, the next thing to watch is simply the official unveiling and when Cheberko first features for his new club.
