It's impossible to know what the standard of MLS Next Pro is gonna be at this point. However, I understand why Farsi made the move. He's going to be on the books of an MLS club, working with their coaches and using their facilities. I'm guessing this wasn't his ideal move (that would have been a MLS first team contract offer or something in Europe he saw as appealing). But let's face it, it's not likely he's going to earning much less money, if not the same or more. He'll be making USD for one thing. I think it's a reasonable gamble from his perspective. If it doesn't work out, I'm sure he can come back to the CPL.
