Transfer Rumor: Orlando City to Acquire Defender Danilo Acosta from Real Salt Lake

According to reports from Soccer By Ives (first) and ProSoccerUSA.com, Orlando City is in the process of acquiring Real Salt Lake defender Danilo Acosta. The defender had been a starter for the Utah-based club until he lost his position to Aaron Herrera last season (read RSL Soapbox’s comparison of the two here). RSL also acquired former Orlando City defender Donny Toia in the MLS Re-Entry Draft, which crowded the depth chart at the left back position.

The 21-year-old Homegrown product has played center back, left back, and defensive midfield for RSL.
