Early life

Agudelo moved with his family from Colombia to the New York area at the age of seven.[1] He grew up and played soccer in Barnegat Township, New Jersey, where he currently lives with his family.


Career

Professional

“He’s been impressive for a 17-year-old. He shows such power. He is something special. When you look at his technical skill, you can compare him with European forwards of the same age, in terms of individual skill.”

-Red Bulls coach Hans Backe speaking about Juan Agudelo, March 17, 2010[2]

Agudelo began his career with the New York Red Bull Academy and quickly established himself as one of the more skilled prospects at the club. In 2009 he was offered a chance to join the junior team but decided to accept a trial with Colombian side Millonarios in 2010. Although it was reported that he had signed with Millonarios, he returned to the United States to join Red Bulls during their pre-season. While with Millonarios, Agudelo played with the youth side, including a match against Santa Fe C.D. on January 17, which served as a tribute match to Brazilian great Pelé.[3]

On March 26, 2010, Agudelo officially joined the New York Red Bulls.[4] He made his professional debut on April 27, 2010, in a U.S. Open Cup game against Philadelphia Union.[5] Agudelo made his MLS debut against Real Salt Lake October 9, 2010, entering in the 85th minute in a match that ended in a scoreless draw. He scored his first professional goal on March 19, 2011, in the Red Bulls' 2011 MLS season opener, a 1–0 victory over Seattle Sounders FC.[6]

As directed by US National team manager Jürgen Klinsmann, that all off-season US MLS stars should train with European clubs, on November 16, 2011 Agudelo started a two week training period with VfB Stuttgart.[7] On December 1, 2011 Agudelo started a similar two week period at Liverpool.

International

Agudelo represented the United States at the 2009 FIFA U-17 World Cup.[8] In 2010, he also debuted for the United States Under-20 side. On January 23, 2010, he scored the equalizing goal for the United States Under-20 national team in a 1–1 draw with Brazil.[9] On November 11, 2010, Agudelo was called up to the United States senior national side for the first time as part of an 18-man roster for a match against South Africa on November 17 in Cape Town.[10] He made his debut for the team coming on against South Africa in the Nelson Mandela Challenge wearing the number 17 shirt. Agudelo scored the only goal of the game on a volley that went in off the underside of the crossbar. In doing so, he became the youngest player in national team history to score in a senior game.[11] On January 22. 2011, Agudelo drew the penalty that led to the USA's only goal of the match in a 1–1 draw against Chile.[12] In an international friendly on March 26, 2011, he scored the equalizer in a 1–1 draw against Argentina. After he scored this goal against the Argnetina national football team, he has been looked on as the next rising star for the United States.
