OKLAHOMA CITY – OKC Energy FC announced on Tuesday it had signed forward Deshorn Brown to a contract through the 2019 season. The signing was completed before the USL’s Roster Freeze last Friday, at which time Brown was officially added to the club’s roster.

Brown has vast experience playing in the United States, having featured for both D.C. United of Major League Soccer and the USL’s Tampa Bay Rowdies in 2017. The majority the Jamaican international’s career was previously spent with Major League Soccer’s Colorado Rapids, where he scored 20 goals in 62 appearances before being sold to Norwegian club Valerenga, where he scored 13 goals in 37 appearances. Brown most recently played for Spanish club Lorca FC.

“We are delighted to add another player with the attacking quality and experience of Deshorn,” said Energy FC Head Coach Steve Cooke. “He’s a player I’ve been fortunate to work with and know well from the Colorado Rapids. He brings a tremendous ability to score goals and create opportunities in the attack, but just as important is his hardworking attitude, his outstanding character and his positive influence with teammates. We are very excited to have Deshorn and his family with us in OKC for the remainder of 2018 and for the 2019 season.”
