The 21-year-old was only able to play 14 league games in a stacked<strong> River Plate</strong> side, but he was regarded as one of the club&rsquo;s biggest prospects going forward for Marcelo Gallardo. River Plate in need of selling talents was not able to say no to Atlanta United&rsquo;s big money offer.

<p>Santiago Sosa has also played for the Argentine U-20&rsquo;s having played in 13 games and went on to represent Argentina in the 2019 U-20 World Cup. Carlos Bocanegra stated that Sosa is <em>&ldquo;a holding midfielder who understands and reads the game exceptionally well for someone his age… He broke through into the First Team at River last year, experiencing numerous big matches in both Copa Libertadores and the Copa Diego Maradona, in addition to his time with Argentina U-20s.&rdquo;</em></p>
