'03 USYNT CM Alejandro "Alex" Alvarado is with the reserves of Vizela according to Transfermarkt, a move that has been speculated for a while. He apparently joins fellow LAG academy product Alex Mendez at the Primeira Liga club.https://t.co/hJtOJbXEkIhttps://t.co/rDj5Mqm2fF— ChuckMe92 Soccer (@ChuckMe92Soccer) September 1, 2021 Alejandro Alvarado Date of birth/Age: Jul 29, 2003 (18) Place of birth: Los Angeles,Calif.

Not only Alex Mendez starts against Benfica in Primeira Liga action, but also '03 USYNT midfielder Alejandro Alvarado makes the bench for the first time. It was hardly an ideal move for either of the LA Galaxy products but they seem to be doing decently under the circumstances. https://t.co/o4E0RS5ecf— ChuckMe92 Soccer (@ChuckMe92Soccer) October 24, 2021 Makes the bench for the first team today

The pairing up of his clients at the same clubs (Uly and Kobe at Wolfsburg) and now this kid with Mendez in Portugal just screams lack of networking and contact lists for Euro clubs.

Another late league appearance: Mendez played 79 minutes and logged a 6.7 match rating. Alvarado was subbed on in the 90th minute for his second league appearance in a row. Not ideal but Vizela picks up 3 points and only their 3rd win of the season. https://t.co/dH7aqOsozJ— USMNT burner (@burnerusmnt) January 2, 2022 Ready for promotion: @bungadiri @dark knight @TheFalseNine

He came on in the 86th minute of a 1-0 loss. With Mendez starting and going the distance, a Portuguese team played two Yanks at the same time, which is not something I remember ever happening.
