The Greenville Triumph made its biggest signing in its almost seven-year history on Wednesday, Jan. 15. Kamden, a seven-year-old forward out of Columbia, is the newest member of the team, fulfilling his dream through Make-A-Wish South Carolina.

The soccer legend wears No. 7, paying homage to his favorite player Cristiano Ronaldo, and he tells us he’s most excited about scoring a goal and getting to know his teammates.
