Cory Burke may not be returning to the Philadelphia Union for preseason, after all.
The 28-year-old Jamaican international is reportedly on his way to being loaned to SKN St. Pölten in the Austrian Bundesliga, a club where Anthony Fontana and Matt Real both had training stints in November.

Previous reports had linked Burke with a sale to the Austrian club.
Burke last appeared for the Union on April 20 and missed the rest of the season because of visa issues. He recently completed a six-month loan to Jamaican team Portmore United, scoring 11 goals in 20 matches.
