Real Salt Lake announced the signing of Argentine winger Jonathan Menendez, a 27-year-old Independiente player, with the club using targeted allocation money to finalize a three-year contract.
Menendez’s career, to this point, has largely consisted of time spent in Argentina, with moves between Independiente and Talleres multiple times from 2016 to present. Early in his career, he spent time with Sevilla’s reserve team, and in 2018, he spent a short loan period at Al-Rayyan SC in Qatar.
From a club-issued release, RSL general manager Elliot Fall:
We are incredibly excited to add a player of Jony’s quality and experience to our roster.
