Major League Soccer apologized on Thursday for posting an erroneous story on its website with the wrong name of a player that was purportedly being transferred to one of its clubs.
The article in question stated that Celtic forward Cayman Togashi and not Furuhashi.
The Daily Mail reported last month that Atlanta had submitted a $12 million bid for Furuhashi. The Five Stripes recently hired former Celtic boss Ronny Deila to be their manager, though Deila's spell in Glasgow ended in 2016, five years before the arrival of Furuhashi at Celtic.
