One of the most intriguing attacks in MLS got another element when New York City FC added on loan Santiago Rodriguez on Thursday.

The addition of the Uruguayan U23 midfielder adds to a midfield core already in place at New York City FC. The attack is intriguing, not so much for what the club has accomplished this year but rather the young potential coming together.

Last month, NYCFC signed Talles Magno, a top player at Vasco da Gama and a forward on Brazil’s U17 national team.
