TUCSON, Ariz. – The New England Revolution have made significant changes to their backline ahead of the 2017 season, but one of the club’s biggest additions in that department won’t ever take the field.
Carlos Llamosa was added to the Revolution’s coaching staff in December – joining head coach Jay Heaps and fellow assistants Tom Soehn and Remi Roy – and the 47-year-old brings a wealth of defensive acumen after a 21-year playing career and seven more years in the coaching ranks.
That experience will be critical as Llamosa goes about the task of helping to solidify a once-leaky Revolution defense that conceded 54 goals last season.
