The New England Revolution announced the signing of Colombian midfielder Dylan Borrero to a three-year contract Friday.
The Revolution acquired Borrero, 20, from Clube Atletico Mineiro of the Brazilian top flight Serie A.
The deal, which includes a one-year club option, is New England’s first under the MLS U-22 Initiative aimed at promoting investment in young players.
“Dylan Borrero is a young attacking player we have followed closely over the past year,” Revolution sporting director and head coach Bruce Arena said in a news release. “His technical ability and pace are assets which will complement our attack. We are excited to welcome him to the New England Revolution.”
