Real Salt Lake’s Argentine midfielder Javier Morales has agreed a contract extension which will keep him in Utah until 2012, it emerged this morning on the MLS official site. Morales joined the MLS side in 2007 and has impressed in his two years at the club. Now the 27 year old will look to keep his good form up and make sure that his team keeps it cool over the last few weeks of the season and clinches a play-off spot.
RSL coach, Jason Kreis gave his views on Morales’ contract extension:
“It was a concerning factor for us going into next year that we could possibly lose him. To have that deal all signed, sealed and delivered is a very good thing for Real Salt Lake.
“We’re very happy with Javier. We’re happy with the work he put in (over) the offseason. We’re happy with how dedicated he’s shown himself to be to our club.”
