Francis Jeffers linked to New England Revolution?

The Daily Mirror is reporting that the Revolution have made an offer to 30 year old English striker Francis Jeffers.  Jeffers got his start in the youth system at Everton and has played for Arsenal, Charlton Athletic, Rangers, Blackburn Rovers, Ipswich Town, Sheffield Wednesday, and most recently Australia's Newcastle United Jets.

Overall Jeffers does not have very exciting numbers 1 goal in 9 appearences at Newcastle Jets and 5 goals in 54 apperences at Sheffield Wednesday, his to most recent teams.  Jeffers has an injury history and is a bit of a journeyman and there are concerns over his attitude. According to Sheffield Wednesday manager Brian Laws "His conduct was totally unacceptable and something this club will not tolerate,"after Jeffers was red carded in a game against Port Vale, he was transfer listed after the incident. This is a sigining that we would be very skeptical of at best, we'll keep an eye on this one.

  1. I'm hoping this isn't the Revs "big" signing. If so it should be the last act Burns ever performs for the Revs. Weak sauce.
