Heads up - this episode hits briefly on the topics of addiction and sexual abuse.
This show’s guest is one of our favorite players to watch in the USL, and he was also one of the coolest to talk to, as well. Sebastián Velásquez is a real one.
He’s the creative #10 for the Miami FC, and has lived a full life and career in his 29 years. We talk about his Colombian roots, his youth career in South Carolina and his early trial with Barcelona (yes, that Barcelona). He would go on to thrive in the MLS with Real Salt Lake and has overcome hardship and tragedy to be a star in the USL with Real Monarchs, El Paso Locomotive FC and now with Miami.
We hope you enjoy this episode with Sebastián as much as we did recording it.
