Real Salt Lake coach Jeff Cassar acknowledged the departure of Javier Morales today in an interview on ESPN 700, calling him “first class” and heaping praise on him.
Cassar’s initial statement about Morales focused on the impact he had on the club and community.
What I can say is, I remember watching video on Javi with the staff ten years ago, and just saying ‘this is a fantastic player; we need to get him into the organization to turn things around.’ Since day one, when he put on a uniform for us, he’s been the man.
