Daniel Santos

Soccer has been an essential part of my life since my early years growing up in Panama. From a young age, I developed a deep passion for the sport, which has shaped my character both on and off the field. Through years of hard work, discipline, and dedication, I earned the opportunity to be scouted by Rush Select Academy in Florida—an important step in my athletic and personal development. As an academy player, I adhere to a demanding training schedule, practicing twice a day, maintaining a healthy and focused lifestyle, and balancing my academic responsibilities with strong commitment and time management.



Since arriving in the United States, I’ve had the chance to face high-level competition, including matches against college-level players. These experiences have helped me grow as a player, enhancing my tactical understanding, technical ability, and adaptability under pressure. My continued effort and leadership on the field contributed to my team’s successful season, culminating in winning the UPSL D1 Regular Season Fall 2024 title. I take great pride in being part of a competitive and professional environment that constantly pushes me to improve and prepare for the next level.
