Christian Sorto joins Miami FC

MIAMI — Miami FC has continued growing its roster for the 2022 season picking up Christian Sorto from RGV FC on Tuesday.

The El Salvador international has signed a two-year contract with Miami and bolsters the attacking stocks at the club which has already seen plenty of change this off-season.

“Christian is a player that caught my eye at Loudoun United a few years ago,” said Miami FC Head Coach Anthony Pulis in a press release. “He’s a player that gets you on the edge of your seat when he has the ball. He can play in any of the positions underneath the striker and has the ability to produce real moments of quality in and around the box. Christian is a young player that I believe has a very high ceiling. I’m excited to work with him and help develop him further.”

2021 was a banner year for Sorto, he scored four goals and provided seven assists as he starred for the Toros in 31 games.

The year also saw Sorto make his international debut coming against Jamaica last month in the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers. That was his second call-up after failing to make the pitch in the prior match window.

Joining Miami will see Sorto reunited with former Loudoun team-mate Kyle Murphy who is also a new addition to the club having joined two weeks ago.
