Cristian Casseres, Jr. Named 12th in USL 20 Under 20 List

The pedigree Casseres brought as a young prospect that represented Venezuela at the 2017 South American Under-17 Football Championship was the principle reason the New York Red Bulls signed the 18-year-old this offseason and he’s become an exciting member of the Red Bulls II midfield this season while also making his MLS debut this August.

The central midfielder has fit in well to the Red Bulls II’s lineup, leading the team with 55.6 passes per 90 minutes while sitting second in passing accuracy at 77.4 percent to defender Kevin Politz among players to have attempted more than 400 passes this season for the side.
