Miami FC will add teenager striker Stefan Jerome in a bid to be more lethal in front of goals.

Miami have not scored more than one goal in 9 of its 11 USSF Division 2 matches this season so want to bring in Jerome, a USA U20 international.

"He's a very young, talented played that I have been scouting for the last two years,'' said Fernando Clavijo, Miami FC's director of soccer. "I've followed him to some international tournaments, I've followed him to the World Cup, and I think he's a tremendous talent.

"We're really eager to bring him aboard. The first step for him is just to get back in shape. We're not rushing anybody here. We have to make sure that he's prepared to play.''
