PORTLAND, Ore. – A trio of standouts from the Portland Timbers 2 were announced as the latest players to make the move to Major League Soccer on Thursday as the Timbers announced winger Victor Arboleda, defender Rennico Clarke and goalkeeper Kendall McIntosh had signed with the club.

With the addition of Arboleda, Clarke and McIntosh, the Timbers have signed four players from their T2 roster for the 2017 season. The trio join defender Marco Farfan, who signed with the Timbers as a Homegrown Player from T2 and the Timbers Academy program in October as the club’s youngest MLS player-signing at 17 years of age.

“We are pleased to announce today the signing of three quality young players who have had the opportunity to demonstrate their abilities with T2,” said Timbers General Manager and President of Soccer Gavin Wilkinson. “With a growing number of players signed from our USL club, we believe developing through our T2 program is a very effective way to get young players ready for first-team football, and we are very encouraged by the progress we are seeing in this area in a relatively short period of time.”
