SEATTLE — Seattle Sounders forward Fredy Montero has been named Major League Soccer’s player of the month for July.
The team announced the second such honor of Montero’s two-year MLS career on Wednesday.
The native of Campo de la Cruz, Colombia, scored two goals and three assists in five July games. Seattle went 3-1-1 in that span.
Montero turned 23 last month.
The only other Sounder to be the league’s player of the month is recently traded Freddie Ljungberg. He won the award last October.
