On Friday afternoon, Houston Dynamo vice-president Matt Jordan announced the loan agreement with Independiente Santa Fe bringing midfielder Yair Arboleda Quinones to Houston for the remainder of 2016 and possibly a lot longer.
The veteran rose up through the academy ranks with the Columbian first division side aside from a short stint with Club Tijuana in 2014. Although strange to consider the 20-year old a veteran and a youngster all in the same breath, the native of Tulua, Columbia brings a wealth of experience with him. Not only has he played for the U-17 Columbian national team with current Dynamo Mauro Manotas but he has also played in Cope Columbia where he netted a goal.
