York United FC Loans Striker Lisandro Cabrera to Dominican Republic club Atlético Pantoja Toronto, ON (March 17, 2021) - York United Football Club can confirm striker Lisandro Cabrera has joined Atlético Pantoja on a short-term loan deal. With the Dominican Republic side facing into a mouthwatering Round of 16 clash with Mexican heavyweights Monterrey in the CONCACAF Champions League next month, it gives the 22-year-old - who signed for York United in November last year - the opportunity to get some elite game-time under his belt ahead of arriving in Canada for the forthcoming CPL season. Pantoja earned their place in the tournament by finishing as the best-placed team in the 2020 Caribbean Club Championship. “It’s very simple and the move makes sense for all parties," says Angus McNab, York United FC CEO/President & GM. "Lisandro is very keen to play matches, Atlético Pantoja have some key games on the horizon in the CONCACAF Champions League and we want to ensure all players come into our environment in the best condition and form.” “The challenge against Monterrey will be massive and a great opportunity for both Lisandro and York United to be introduced to a huge audience in Mexico that will be watching that game.” “I can’t thank the management and ownership at Atlético Pantoja enough for their partnership here. Lisandro will be taken care of by them and the agreement is very flexible: we have the right to recall as soon as Lisandro's Canadian visa is processed.”
