Bryan de la Fuente's career arc lands him at Ararat (Armenia)

This is good news.

 

The Bryan de la Fuente Poblanno listed as a Tijuana player in the Mexican fed's database is a '92 born in Mexico.

U.S. Soccer lists the ex-Chivas USA guy as a '91.

I suppose they could be the same guy, but this seems... odd. Is there another guy with this name at the club?

EDIT: Chivas USA has him as a '92 born in Texas:

But the photos on the Chivas USA site and the Mexican Fed are pretty certainly the same dude.

 

US Soccer's website isn't known for 100% accuracy in birth years -- they still have Bobby Wood wrong. De la Fuente is a 92.

 

Do all the Americans on Los Xolos live in TJ or San Diego?

 

I think Corona crosses the border everyday but in an interview Greg Garza said he planned on living in Tijuana.

 

That's right

Garza said he's living in TJ

 

The big difference there is that Corona is originally from SD. My guess would be most of the guys would live in TJ until they know they are on the first team.

 

Have we confirmed if this is the same Bryan de la Fuente that was with Chivas USA?

 

Yes. Spoke with his agent at the game today.

 

An original source!

 

Yes. As a Chivas USA supporter I can tell you that I spoke to him after he parted ways with Chivas USA and was trying his luck with Xolos.

ps, He scored today in a 3-1 victory in the reserves (he posted it on facebook)

 

Hammarby official website write today that de la Fuente will be training with them this week.

 

Interesting....he just signed with the Xolos and was supposedly doing well. I wonder if this is a loan opportunity or just training?

 

He played in a U21 game for Hammarby today. They won 5-2 and de la Fuente scored one of the goals.

 

Anyone know what da la Fuente is doing? Is he still playing on the U-20s with Rodriguez? The Arriola signing made me think of him.

 

In a game day thread recently someone posted that he was with a NPSL side in Orange County.

Not sure what happened.

 

I see that now.

It's about time someone asked if you can get a de la Fuente shirt from the source!

 

he's playing for Chivas U-23s who won some local/regional league
