Juan Manuel Martinez is officially no longer a Real Salt Lake player, with the club announcing in a press release that he and the club agreed to a mutual contract termination.
The release cited desires of Martinez and his family to be closer to extended family in Argentina.
In the release, RSL general manager Craig Waibel cited adjustments with young children as being particularly difficult.
Juan’s Family has always been the most important thing to him. Unfortunately, the adjustment to life in Salt Lake City off the field with young kids didn’t work out as well as we all wanted it to.
