Real Salt Lake: New attacking midfielder Albert Rusnák eager to get RSL career off the ground

The 22-year-old Slovakian attacking midfielder embraced his first hour in Utah the way the club and its fan base hope he does his on the grass at Rio Tinto Stadium for years to come.

Rusnák is expected to be introduced formally at a press conference Friday morning in Sandy as both the present and future of the RSL attack. While the deal is expected to be finalized Friday, Waibel said Rusnák's contract at RSL will be a multiyear agreement.

With a new RSL scarf draped around his neck, Rusnák wasn't shy in explaining his move from Dutch club FC Groningen — which reported the transfer agreement with RSL was finished on Tuesday — to Major League Soccer.
