New York City FC continue to rebuild a badly depleted roster with the rumored addition of Braian Cufré, a left-footed left-back from Argentina who will join from la Liga side RCD Mallorca, according to journalist César Luis Merlo.
The 26-year-old should compete for playing time with Malte Amundsen, the regular starter at left-back, and Kevin O’Toole, the former Princeton standout who became NYCFC head coach Nick Cushing’s surprise choice at that position for the final seven games of the 2022 season.
Cufré is a highly-regarded player who started regularly for Club Atlético Vélez Sarsfield in Argentina’s Primera División for four years before joining Mallorca in 2020.
