Honduran striker Darixon Vuelto will be joining the Portland Timbers' USL side, T2, this season, a source confirmed to the Oregonian/OregonLive Tuesday.

Multiple reports out of Honduras had linked Vuelto to the Timbers organization over the last week, but it was not initially clear whether the 20-year-old would be signing with the Timbers or T2.

The Timbers will likely look to add Vuelto to their first team roster this summer or sign him to a first team contract for 2019, according to the source.

Vuelto has most recently competed for Honduran side Real Espana where he scored 10 goals in 28 appearances. He has also been a mainstay in the Honduras youth national team program.

Vuelto had been linked to multiple MLS teams this offseason, including the Houston Dynamo and FC Dallas, but the Timbers held Vuelto's Discovery Rights.
