SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio FC has added forward Leonides Urrutia, midfielder Landry Walker and defenders Braylon Jernigan, Angel Mercado and Leonardo Jauregui to the roster on academy agreements, pending league and federation approval.

“I was very pleased and impressed with the performances of these young athletes in our friendly against Las Palmas in May and each day as they’ve been training with our squad,” said SAFC Head Coach Carlos Llamosa. “We take great pride in the work of our academy and are excited to give these young men the chance to continue their development with the first team.”

Walker returns as a USL Academy signing for the second consecutive year, having made his debut for San Antonio during the 2024 USL Championship season. The 16-year-old has received previous call-ups to the United States Youth National Team program, and was the youngest player to appear for SAFC when he made his debut aged 15 years, 24 days old against FC Tulsa on June 8, 2024.

The five players, all members of the SAFC Pro Academy presented by Ricos, join the first team ahead of Wednesday’s USL Jägermeister Cup match against Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC.
