INDIANAPOLIS – Indy Eleven added its third major attacking piece of the offseason on Tuesday, signing 2018 USL Championship All-League First Team selection Thomas Enevoldsen for the club’s second season in the league.

“Thomas is coming off an excellent first USL Championship season,” said Rennie. “He scored 20 goals and collected 10 assists without taking any penalties. He’s hungry for success and we are glad to have him in Indy.”
