San Diego FC have acquired goalkeeper CJ dos Santos from Inter Miami CF, the clubs announced Wednesday.

In exchange for the former US youth international, Inter Miami receive $100,000 in 2025 General Allocation Money (GAM).

"CJ is a promising goalkeeper who brings international experience and depth to our squad," said SDFC sporting director Tyler Heaps.

"We’re thrilled to add him to our roster and look forward to his contributions as we build a competitive team for our inaugural season."

Dos Santos, 24, played in three matches (all competitions) for Inter Miami from 2022-24. He was part of their Leagues Cup 2023 and 2024 Supporters' Shield-winning squads.

Before starting his first-team career, dos Santos played in Portugal for Benfica's youth teams and was in the Philadelphia Union Academy.

Internationally, dos Santos was on US squads at the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup and 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup.

Dos Santos is San Diego's second goalkeeper signing before their debut season, joining 18-year-old US youth international Duran Ferree.
