SANDY, Utah (Friday, December 14, 2018) – Real Salt Lake selected DF Donny Toia in Stage 1 of the MLS Re-Entry Draft on Friday, bringing the RSL Academy product and former RSL player back to Rio Tinto Stadium.
“Donny Toia is a young player, but he’s also experienced,” RSL Head Coach Mike Petke said. “He has been in the league for a while and can contribute to our club and still has the potential for growth.”
Originally signed by Real Salt Lake as the club’s first ever Homegrown signing in 2011, Toia played with FC Tucson of the PDL in 2012 and USL Pro’s Phoenix FC in 2013 before returning to MLS with Chivas USA in 2014.
