Atlético Ottawa has locked in Spanish defender Jesús del Amo on a permanent deal through the end of the 2024 CPL season. The 25-year-old, who came through Barcelona’s famed academy and played for Villarreal’s under-19 team, brings some solid experience and versatility to Ottawa’s defense. “Jesus is a left-footed defender with great technical ability, and his ability to play in different positions at the back gives us more depth,” said Head Coach Carlos González. “We’re excited to have him on board to help us reach our goals.” This move could be just what Ottawa needs as they push for the title in the final stretch of the season.
