According to sources, Red Bull New York II is set to sign a pair of Panamanian defenders from CD Plaza Amador, 20-year-old Aimar Sanchez and 18-year-old Alexander Julio.
Sanchez, a two-time Liga de Panama champion, has 1 goal in 35 career appearances as a center back with Plaza Amador and two caps for the Panamanian U-20s. Julio, currently under contract with Plaza Amador II, has made four first team apperances for the club at right back.
Sanchez and Julio would join a growing contingent of Panamanians at RBNY, as the club already has Rafael Mosquera, Omar Valencia, Aimar Modelo, Mijahir Jimenez and is rumored to be signing San Miguelito forward Gustavo Herrera. They would also be the fourth and fifth former Plaza Amador players to join the club after Mosquera, Valencia and Jimenez.
