– He is without a doubt the most successful goalkeeper of his generation and a proven winner. We are very excited to have chosen Los Angeles for the next stage of his illustrious career. “He brings unprecedented leadership experience at the highest levels of football,” Los Angeles manager John Thorrington said.
