Brisbane Roar Hub
Brisbane Roar has reached an agreement with Colorado Rapids over Lucas Herrington's sell-on fee. The conversation started with Colorado Rapids approaching the Roar with a proposal to buy out the sell-on percentage the club held on Lucas at an increased valuation.
What happened?
The matter was taken to the club's ownership group, as our governance requires. After reviewing the proposal, ownership directed the club to negotiate and reach an agreement.
Why it matters for Brisbane Roar
Lucas Herrington was identified in the Football Queensland pathway, developed and backed into professional football by this club. We supported him through our pathway, gave Lucas his opportunity in the professional game, and built his value to the point where clubs overseas were interested.
