Grove United Signs Former Pro Player Moisés Velasco

Grove United is thrilled to announce a marquee signing for our NPSL squad — former professional standout Moisés Velasco. With a career that spans some of the most competitive leagues and top-tier clubs in international football, Velasco’s arrival brings elite-level experience, leadership, and energy to the squad as we prepare for a high-stakes NPSL campaign.

From Liga MX to Grove United

Velasco has competed at the very highest levels of the sport, with a professional résumé that includes stints at Club Toluca, San Luis, Querétaro, and most notably, Club América — one of the most decorated and globally recognized clubs in Liga MX and all of North American football.

Representing Club América — a team with a massive fan base and a tradition of excellence — speaks volumes about Velasco's quality and pedigree as a player.

In addition to domestic league success, Velasco has also made his mark on the international stage, featuring in multiple editions of the CONCACAF Champions League, one of FIFA’s most competitive continental club tournaments.

His decorated career includes:

🏆 2× Liga MX Apertura Champion

🏆 1× Liga MX Clausura Champion

🌎 1× CONCACAF Champions League Winner

🌍 3× CONCACAF Champions League Appearances

Velasco also played a vital role in leading Atlético Veracruz to a finals appearance in the Liga de Balompié Mexicano, further proving his ability to lead teams to success.

A Leader On and Off the Pitch

Velasco primarily operates as a defensive midfielder, bringing tactical discipline, composure, and relentless work ethic to the center of the pitch. He also has the ability to contribute as a central or right midfielder, offering versatility that will add significant depth to Grove United’s midfield engine room.

“Signing a player of Moisés Velasco’s caliber is a monumental moment for our club,” said Club President Justin Grove. “His experience at the highest levels of the game, both domestically and internationally, brings a level of professionalism and leadership that will immediately elevate our squad. Moisés is not only a gifted footballer, but also a role model for our younger players and a competitor who understands what it takes to win. We’re thrilled to welcome him to Grove United.”

Be Part of Something Special

Velasco’s signing isn’t just another transfer — it’s a statement of intent. Grove United is stepping up, and we’re bringing the community with us.
