DC United today announced that the club has signed 20 year-old Syamsir Alam on loan from Belgium side C.S. Visé.
Alam hails from Jakarta, Indonesia where he has represented his country on several occasions from the U-11 level all the way up to the U-23 level. Before joining C.S. Vise, Alam played for Club Atlético Peñarol of the Uruguayan Primera División as well as spending time with Dutch sides SC Heerenveen and Vitesse Arnhem, both of the Dutch Eredivisie. Alam will be available for selection pending receipt of his International Transfer Certificate and visa.
"Syamsir is a young, attacking midfielder with good technical ability, and we look forward to having him on loan with us," said D.C. United General Manager Dave Kasper.
