Before Sunday’s game, Howard penned a letter to the Everton fans he played in front of week in and week out during his 10-year tenure with the Premier League side.

Howard won’t play his first MLS game since his move to Everton until July when his transfer is officially completed during the Summer transfer window. Until then, Howard will be busy training with the USMNT in their friendlies before the Copa America and during the historic event in June.

The goalie ended an era on Sunday and in a classy gesture thanked those who showed up and gave their support at Goodison Park and on the road. His tenure with Everton was a successful one and Howard doesn’t look like he is slowing down anytime soon as he brings his services to MLS and continued leadership to the USMNT.
