Dylan Felipe Borrero Caicedo (born 5 January 2002) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a left winger for Major League Soccer club New England Revolution.

Club career

New England Revolution

The New England Revolution announced April 22, 2022, that they had signed Borrero to a three-year deal (with a one year club option) as part of MLS' U22 initiative for a reported fee of $4.5 million. Atlético Mineiro would retain a 20% sell-on fee as part of the move. [2]

Head coach Bruce Arena complimented Borrero's pace and technical play and noted the club had been monitoring Borrero for a year prior to the signing. Jonathan Sigal, writing in MLSoccer.com, stated that Borrero's arrival should help New England counterbalance the loss of Canadian winger Tajon Buchanan in the winter transfer window to Club Brugge. [3]

On June 12, 2022, Borrero made his first start with his new club and subsequently recorded his first assist; a lobbed-pass to Gustavo Bou to put his team up 1-0 over Sporting Kansas City. The Revolution would go on to win the match 2-1. [4]

Borrero would score his first goal for the Revolution the following week against Minnesota United FC, on a shot deflected off of a Minnesota defender past keeper Dayne St. Clair. [5]

Borrero scored his first goal of the 2023 New England Revolution season in the club's home opener on March 4, 2023, opening the scoring in a 3-0 win over the Houston Dynamo FC. [6] He scored his second goal on April 8, 2023, again opening the scoring for the Revolution in their 4-0 win over CF Montréal. [7] His season was cut short on April 29, 2023, when he suffered an ACL tear in the Revolution's 1-1 draw with FC Cincinnati. The injury would rule him out for the remainder of the 2023 season. [8]
