One day after announcing David Mejia’s first professional contract, Atlanta United 2 added another core player to its midfield by announcing it had re-signed midfielder Robbie Mertz.
“We’re pleased to bring Robbie back after a productive season in which he was a key contributor to our squad,” Atlanta United 2 head coach Jack Collison said. “Robbie is a creative player who adds quality to our midfield and his leadership is invaluable to our young group.”
Robbie Mertz, 25, and Bradley Kamdem Fewo shared the captain’s armband this year and both left their hearts on the field every time the team played.
