A new face joined Real Salt Lake’s training camp in Herriman on Wednesday, as newly-signed forward Alfredo Ortuño was at the Zions Bank Real Academy training center on the third day of preseason for Real Salt Lake.
The forward, who celebrated his 27th birthday on Sunday, traveled from his native Spain, arriving in Utah on Tuesday evening. After meeting the team, he worked on the side of the field to get acclimated to his new environs – adjusting to the time zone changes, the jet lag from his day of travel and the mountainous altitude. Although he didn’t get a chance to take the field, he was happy with his first day with his new club.
