Charlotte FC Adds Vinicius Mello

Another solid add, Mello is a young player with tons of potential and is our first forward.

Mello will slot in as a U-22 initiative player. Depending on how the rest of roster is built, he will either be one of three U-22 initiative players or he could be the only one.

Below is a rough projection based off of Ramirez’s tendency to play a 4-3-3:

GK - Pablo Sisniega

LB - Christian Fuchs, Adam Armour

CB - Jan Sobocinski

CB - Guzman Corujo

RB - Jaylin Lindsey

CDM - Jordy Alcivar

CM - Sergio Ruiz

CM - Riley McGree, Brandt Bronico 

LW -

RW -

CF - Vinicius Mello

Charlotte can add up to 19 more players.

I’ll also mention that though we can have up to 30 players on our roster, it’s highly unlikely that we see that number this year as each roster spot has a special designation. It takes a couple of years to build a 30 man roster.

For example:

Austin FC (2021) - 22 roster players

Miami (2020) - 23 roster players

Nashville (2020) - 27 roster players

It obviously takes time to build a roster but obtaining a players’ homegrown rights (Lindsey), signing a U22 (Mello), and potentially drafting a Generation Adidas player (Ousseni Bouda) is a good start.
