Homegrown Real Salt Lake midfielder Fito Ovalle has been waived by the organization, according to a club-issued press release today.
Ovalle was given a leave of absence from RSL in recent weeks for personal reasons, which were undisclosed.
In the release, RSL general manager Craig Waibel said the waiving came after discussions with the player.
Following a series of discussions with Fito we have reached the understanding that we cannot fulfill his short term goals, desires, and aspirations. In lieu of this, Real Salt Lake has placed him on waivers. We thank him for his contributions to our organization and wish him nothing but the best that the sport has to offer him in the coming years.
