WINNIPEG, MB - Valour FC today announce the club has re-signed Panama international player Amir Soto.
Soto, 23, joined Valour FC on February 7th, 2020 from CD Universitario (Liga Panameña de Fútbol) where he spent the 2019 season.
"We are delighted to welcome Amir back to the club this season," said Valour FC Head Coach & GM Rob Gale. "Amir bought into the culture and showed his commitment to the club despite not being able to participate in the 2020 season.
