David Ochoa (born January 16, 2001) is an American soccer player who plays for Real Monarchs on loan from Real Salt Lake as a goalkeeper.

Professional career

Ochoa appeared for USL side Real Monarchs on April 22, 2018 in a 2-0 loss to Tampa Bay Rowdies, becoming the second-youngest goalkeeper ever to debut in USL.[1]

On August 8, 2018, it was reported that Ochoa was training with Manchester United and had further trials planned with clubs from Spain and Germany.[2]

Ochoa signed with Real Salt Lake on November 28, 2018, ahead of the 2019 season.[3]

International career

Ochoa is eligible to play for the United States or Mexico. Originally called up to the Mexico under-16s,[4] Ochoa instead opted to play for the United States at multiple youth levels.

Ochoa has been capped at under-16, -18, and -20 levels for the U.S. and has also been a member of the under-17 residency program.[5] On August 25, 2018, Ochoa made multiple penalty saves in the final of the 2018 Vaclav Jezek Tournament in helping the U.S. under-18s to winning the tournament.[6]
