FC Dallas are trying to bring Lee Nguyen "home" to Dallas, Texas for the 2018 MLS campaign onwards. They have gone as far as to start a # on Twitter of: #BringLeeHome
The 31 year old currently plays for Eastern Conference side New England Revolution, but FC Dallas are looking to invest heavily in their squad this often season. New England Revolution finished, just outside the play-off spots in the East, while FC Dallas missed out of the Western Conference play-offs, by goal difference. They hope that Lee Nguyen could be the difference next season.
This report surfaced on Big D Soccer over this last week, with the publication stating the ways that they could entice Lee Nguyen back to Dallas, having grown up in North Dallas. They have tried everything from having the best Pho in America, to great team BBQ's.
Also, stating that since Lee is from Dallas, that he is surely a Cowboys fan and that he can be BFF's with Dak Prescott.

THE HISTORY
As for Lee himself, Lee Nguyen as an amateur played for the Dallas Texans, before moving onto College, playing for the Indiana Hoosiers, making 22 appearances, scoring 5 goals.
From 2006 - 2009 he would play for both PSV Eindhoven in the Eredivisie and Randers in Denmark. His time in Europe would be an unsuccessful time, in 3 years for PSV and Randers, Nguyen would play 25 total games and score just three goals.
For the next two season's, Nguyen would spend them in Vietnam, plying his trade. It would be a successful time with both Hoang Anh Gia Lai and Becamex Binh Duong. In 24 appearance for Hoang Anh Gia Lai, Nguyen would score 16 goals. For Becamex Binh Duong, he would score 7 goals in 15 appearances, thus causing New England Revolution to bring him back to the States.

THE PROSPECTS
If Big D Soccer get their wish and Lee Nguyen does move back to Dallas for the first time, since he was a Youth player. He will definitely take up a DP (Designated Player) spot on their roster and could help lead FC Dallas back into the playoff picture.
Lee Nguyen's price in MLS Fantasy is $11.0 at the moment, so he will definitely be a Heavy Hitter in MLS Fantasy next season. The closest priced FC Dallas midfielder in MLS Fantasy is Michael Barrios in the $8.0 - $8.5 million bracket. It may be time for Lee Nguyen to "come home".
