EL PASO, TX – February 25, 2020 – El Paso Locomotive FC extends loan for Josué Aarón Gómez into the 2020 season, pending league and federation approval. Gomez has been on loan from FC Juarez since the beginning of May 2019. He was a crucial part of the attack and notched 8 goals, all of which came in the second half of the season.
