Los Angeles FC has signed Portugal youth international Andre Horta from Benfica as a designated player, the MLS expansion side announced Tuesday.
The 21-year-old midfielder fills the third and final DP slot on LAFC's roster, joining Carlos Vela and Diego Rossi.
"Andre is a player we identified quite some time ago as someone we felt would be the right fit for LAFC," LAFC general manager John Thorrington said in a news release. "We are grateful for the support of ownership, and the acquisition of Andre is yet another statement of the type of club and team we are building.
