Why might the Rapids have signed Mike da Fonte

And you thought the Rapids were all done with early-season transfers.

The Colorado Rapids announced the signing of USL defender Mike da Fonte via their website. Da Fonte was signed on a two-year contract, and salary details were not disclosed.

The club expressed excitement for the signing and briefly explained the process that brought Mike to Colorado.

“Mike impressed in our preseason meeting with Sacramento last year and we continued to track his progress. He provides competition and increased depth to our already strong defensive core,” said Rapids Sporting Director Pádraig Smith.
