Brent Kallman
HOW ACQUIRED: Signed on January 23, 2017.
Kallman is a center back and Minnesota native who has spent his entire professional career with MNUFC in the NASL. His height is a huge asset on both ends of the pitch, clearing lofted balls out of MNUFC’s penalty area and nodding home crosses into the opponent’s net. Never backing down, Kallman frequently made incisive runs through the midfield and deep into enemy territory, part of a lethal Minnesota United attack in 2016. He should provide in the center of defense for Minnesota in 2017.
COLLEGE: Kallman played four seasons at Creighton University, leading the Blue Jays to back-to-back College Cup appearances.
OUTSIDE MLS: Kallman played nearly every match for Minnesota in 2016, working with fellow defenders Justin Davis and Kevin Venegas on the backline.
