EXCLUSIVE: Steel FC believe Diaz "fits our structure"

Bethlehem Steel FC are going into the 2019 USL Championship season with a big, fast, and physically imposing strike force.

On Friday, Steel FC announced the signing of Saed Diaz from Tauro FC of the Panamanian first division. Diaz can play as a lone striker, but he can also pair with Faris to create a formidable partnership that wear down opposing defenses and initiate a suffocating defensive press.

What attracted Steel FC and the whole Union organization to Diaz most, though, was his relentlessness. "In the two games I saw, he was always involved, always wanted to be involved, always helping," Steel FC assistant coach Stephen Hogan said.
