Born on July 6, 2000, the 25-year-old stands at 186 cm and has developed into a modern, tactically astute shield for the defense. His professional career began with New York City FC in MLS, where his composure and passing range from a deep-lying role quickly marked him as one of the USA's most promising talents.
