His hopes of being on the top United States circuit have been blown and now the catracho must find an alternative way to reach Major League Soccer or take on new challenges abroad.

Enrique Facussé, 22, belongs to the University of Kentucky Wildcats and was part of the Honduras Under-23 team that headed to the Pan American Games in Lima, Peru, led by Fabián Coito.

Enrique Facussé will have to wait for his chance to go to MLS. In the 2021 Draft, he was out of luck.

His performance with the Wildcats was good throughout the season in the college class, which led to Enrique being selected to a top circuit to look for him, but no team took him.

Only two Honduran footballers were selected by the MLS Draft, Ramón Nuñéz in 2004 by Dallas Burn and Roger Espinoza in 2008 by the Kansas City Wizards.

Ramón Nuñéz and Roger Espinoza were the only two Honduran footballers selected by the MLS Draft.

The tall 1.93 goalkeeper was born in Tegucigalpa on December 30, 1998, but has lived in the United States for more than four years.
