Orlando City SC announced the
signing of Brazilian defender Ruan to a one-year deal on Wednesday.
The 23-year-old Ruan made 49 appearances in Brazilian leagues over
the past two seasons.
"We are very excited to welcome Ruan to Orlando City. He is a
dependable right back that has excellent speed and is dangerous in
his transition on the offensive side of the ball," Orlando City
executive vice president of soccer operations Luiz Muzzi said in a
statement. "As a Club we continue to provide depth on our roster and
build competition within the group as we head into our 2019
preseason."
