The David Blitzer-owned-club pipeline has taken its first step forward with Real Salt Lake in the network, with FC Augsburg sending Sergio Cordova to Real Salt Lake on loan.
Cordova, who is nominally a center forward but has occasional time on the wing, has been with Augsburg since their 2017-18 season, scoring nine goals in the Bundesliga over five seasons. He joined Augsburg from Venezuelan side Caracas FC.
If one has followed the career of Jefferson Savarino, Cordova’s name might seem familiar. The two have overlapped on their national team, with the two occasionally playing substitute for one another.
