RGVFC signed ten players to the 2018 roster this week. While a couple of the additions have experience with their nation’s youth international teams, one is currently a member of a senior squad. That player would be goalkeeper Matt Sanchez.
The 23-year-old has been playing for the Puerto Rican national team since 2015. He also had a very successful college career at Loyola University of Maryland and Old Dominion. After winning 2016 Patriot League Goalkeeper of the Year and trialing with D.C. United, Sanchez was forced to sit out last season due to injury.
