The Chicago Fire have signed the right back on loan from Brazilian side Coritiba.
The Chicago Fire announced the acquisition of Brazil Under-20 national team defender Rodrigo Ramos on Wednesday, as the club's revamped back line continues to take shape.
The 20-year-old right back arrives on a one-year loan from Brazilian side Coritiba after debuting for the club in June. He ended 2015 with nine appearances.
Ramos logged two matches at last summer's U-20 World Cup in New Zealand, where Brazil fell to now-Chicago coach Veljko Paunovic and Serbia in the final.
"Rodrigo is a dynamic outside back with lots of range," said Fire general manager Nelson Rodriguez in a news release.
