FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The New England Revolution exercised the permanent MLS transfer options on forward Cristian Penilla and midfielder Luis Caicedo following their year-long loans from Liga MX side Pachuca and Colombian club Cortuluá, respectively.
“This year both Penilla and Caicedo were impactful players on the field for us and we felt it was important to exercise both players’ permanent transfer options at the start of the offseason,” General Manager Michael Burns said. “We look forward to seeing both players continue to grow and contribute to the team’s success moving forward.”
On loan from Liga MX side Pachuca, Penilla, 27, started 33 games for the Revolution in 2018.
