Boyata's career takes surprising twist after becoming free agent
The Soccer Tournament (TST) is an annual competition held in the United States. This year's version takes place in North Carolina and runs from June 4 until June 9.
It consists of 48 teams, who are split into 12 groups of four. The top two from each group and the eight third-place teams with the highest points totals progress to the knockout stages.

Boyata will line up for 'Socceroof'. He will play alongside the likes of Luis Pedro Cavanda, formerly of Lazio, and ex-Bordeaux man Anthony Castera.
Barker, previously of Rangers, will turn out for Wrexham, having been selected as a guest player for the Welsh club.
Ex-Celtic centre-half Boyata made 135 appearances in green and white after joining the Parkhead outfit from Manchester City in 2015.
He departed for Hertha Berlin on a free transfer four years later and now finds himself without a team after a spell at Club Brugge in his homeland.
"Brendan Rodgers took my game to another level," Boyata told The Celtic Way last month.
"It was quite hard for me in the beginning, but it was all worth it in the end.
"He drilled down into the finer details of my game - my passing, my heading, my positional play - everything. Brendan wanted me just to keep it all nice and simple and to play as I did in training. He was smart, and he said that everything would go well for me at Celtic if I followed his instructions. How right he was."
