Kenneth Vermeer joins FC Cincinnati - Opportunity "to improve our roster"
FC Cincinnati have acquired Dutch goalkeeper Kenneth Vermeer from Major League Soccer's Waiver List. The goalkeeper signed a contract until the end of the 2022 season and will occupy an international roster spot.
"We are always looking for opportunities to improve our roster and believe Kenneth brings quality and leadership to our team," said FC Cincinnati general manager Gerard Nijkamp said. "He has experienced success throughout his career and we feel this is a good addition to our roster. We are happy to have Kenneth in Cincinnati and look forward to him integrating within our team quickly."
Vermeer last played for Los Angeles FC where he conceded 24 goals in just 15 games. In order to make room for the 35-year-old goalkeeper, defender Maikel van der Werff was placed on the Injured List.
