Djordje Petrovic is a “real goalkeeper” who “isn’t afraid of anything,” according to his former coach Ilija Stolica.
On Tuesday, the New England Revolution signed Petrovic to a three-year contract with an additional one-year option. The 22-year-old will soon depart from native Serbia to begin his adventure in the United States. Stolica, who made a similar trip when he joined the Revs in 2010, is excited to see what happens next.
Stolica provided insight to the club he played for in 2010 and 2011, telling Director of Scouting & Player Personnel Remi Roy and others that Petrovic is “a very good goalkeeper with really great potential.
