Florida Tropics SC News Release


LAKELAND, Fla. - The Florida Tropics today announced an arrangement with Sonora de Soles that will allow Wilo Martinez to dress for Sonora during the 2019-20 season.

The Tropics will be loaning Martinez to the Mexican club. Wilo signed with Florida as a free-agent this past summer, but has been unable to dress because he has not received final visa clearance.

Tropics officials indicated that they fully expect Martinez to be a part of the club next season.

"We want him here. He's very talented player, but given the current situation, the best resolution for everyone - Wilo, the teams, fans and the league - is to agree to this loan," Tropics Chief Operating Officer Chris Economides said. "He wants to play, of course, and this will allow him to get back on the field to showcase his skills."

The Tropics will host the Milwaukee Wave Saturday, Dec. 28 at 5:05 p.m. Florida is 5-0 this year, atop the Eastern Conference, but Martinez has not dressed for any of the games.
