Leonel Miranda "Pies Rapidos"

Miranda signed with top Argentine club Independiente in October 2012. He made his debut with the seven-time Copa Libertadoreschampions in March 2013 and made 34 appearances for the club scoring 2 goals. On 8 January, 2015 it was announced that Miranda would join Major League Soccer club Houston Dynamo on loan through to the end of the 2015 MLS season.

We feel that Miranda is the guy to keep an eye on because he is resilient, also very skillful and his foot work is sick! He literally embarasses players on the field!  Seriously, check out his videos on YouTube! http://youtu.be/zm0HndLgA8k      

Hence why he gets the nickname Pies Rapidos, "Quick feet" in Spanish... 

Look out each week for our next rising star....
