After spending the better part of three years languishing on the bench in Chicago, Watson-Siriboe received a much-needed career reboot in June 2012 when RSL acquired him via trade with the Fire. RSL assistant coach C.J. Brown was the driving force behind the acquisition, having seen firsthand Watson-Siriboe's physical talent and strong work ethic when the two played together in Chicago in 2010.

Acquiring Watson-Siriboe paid off handsomely for RSL in 2012, as the UConn product played well in 12 league games and started 10 in fill-in duty for injured center backs. Watson-Siriboe – who played in more games and tallied more minutes in one half-season with RSL than he did in 2 ½ years in Chicago – will get many more opportunities to shine in 2013, likely beginning the season as a starter with regular center back Nat Borchers out until mid-April while recovering from offseason surgery on his left quad.

Acquired

RSL: Via trade from the Chicago Fire on June 27, 2012 in exchange for a fourth-round draft pick in the 2014 MLS SuperDraft.
