Atlanta United today announced it has recalled goalkeeper Justin Garces on a short-term loan agreement due to Extreme Hardship for Wednesday’s match against Chattanooga FC in the Third Round of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup at Fifth Third Bank Stadium (7:30 p.m., ESPN+, Sports Radio 92-9 The Game).
Dirty South Soccer covered the team’s full depth chart of goalkeepers through the organization yesterday.
According to MLS rules, a loaned player may be recalled to his MLS club for a short-term loan agreement in the case of Extreme Hardship. Extreme Hardship exists when an MLS club has either: 1) fewer than 16 outfield players available; or 2) fewer than two goalkeepers available.
