Agudelo scored seven goals for San Antonio FC in 28 games during the 2024 USL Championship season before announcing his retirement.

  • This year Juan Agudelo will retire at the end of San Antonio FC's season in the second-tier United Soccer League Championship after joining the club this year.
  • Long ago Agudelo's goal against South Africa made him the youngest U.S. national-team scorer in the modern era during the Cape Town friendly on Nov. 10, 2017.
  • After spells across MLS and the USL, Agudelo's recent form included seven goals this year for San Antonio FC as the team aims for a playoff spot in the USL Championship.
  • In terms of legacy, Agudelo's international goals arrived in friendly matches, and Christian Pulisic later eclipsed the youngest-to-score mark with a goal on May 28, 2016.
  • Born in Colombia, Agudelo moved to the U.S. at age 7 and was signed by Stoke City but failed to get a work permit, leading to a loan to Utrecht.
