Valletta FC have announced the signing of American defender Shaft Brewer.
The Citizens are preparing themselves for their return to the Maltese top-flight and have been investing heavily in their first-team squad to ensure they can play a role of protagonists during the 2025-26 season.
Brewer is a 25-year-old right back who spent the majority of his career in the United States.
The defender, who also holds an English passport, came through the youth ranks of SAC Academy and the Dallas Academy before moving for a year in Germany, where he played for the U-19 side of Bundesliga side RB Leipzig.
In August 2018, he returned to the United States, where he joined the Los Angeles FC and then moved to Phoenix Rising.
In 2022, he had a short spell in Norway with Fram before he was back in the United States, where he donned the colours of Union Omaha, North Carolina, and Las Vegas Lights.
At international level, he collected 18 caps with the United States U-18 side, scoring two goals, as well as two appearances with the USA U-20 side.
Brewer is Valletta’s second signing, after on Sunday, they announced the signing of Brazilian goalkeeper Adilson Maringa.
