HOUSTON – There’s no denying the impact 37-year-old Vicente Sánchez has had on the Houston Dynamo — his two goals and six assists are evidence of that. But beyond the stats and his skills on the ball on game day, the forward has also taken on the role of mentor with the team.
Years ago, it was Sanchez on the receiving end of the mentoring. The Uruguayan international played – and rose to prominence – during a seven-year stint with Liga MX club Toluca, and it’s those memories that have now served him as tools as he’s become a veteran for La Naranja.
