Brisbane Roar have secured the services of former Costa Rica under-20 striker Jean Carlo Solorzano for the upcoming A-League season.

Solorzano, 22, has been signed on loan from Costa Rican club LD Alajuelense for one year.

Brisbane coach Ange Postecoglou said the exciting 22-year-old had all the attributes to be a success in the A-League.

"We've obviously been looking for a striker for a little while and for me it was about finding someone who fits with what we are trying to create here,'' Postecoglou said.

"I was keen on somebody who was young and ambitious ... if anyone is young and talented they tend to stay in those overseas leagues.

"We've worked hard to find that kind of player and from my point of view he fits the bill.''

Solorzano made his debut in the Costa Rican Primera Division as a 16-year-old in 2005 and has played at under-17 and under-20 level for his national team.

Sounds like a decent signing tbh, proof will be in the pudding of course but sounds likely.

Starting to notice a lot more younger signings this pre-season. I hope finally that clubs are getting over signing old has-beens and looking to future stars!
