With the addition of Gozo and Moisa, Real Salt Lake now has 14 homegrown players on its active roster.
Gozo, an Eagle Mountain native, made his MLS debut for Real on October 13, 2023, at 16 years old. He was the third-youngest debutant in club history.
Gozo joined the RSL organization in 2021 as a member of the academy. He led the team in goals in his first season with 16 and followed that up with a 10 goal season in 2022.
In 10 games for the Real Monarchs last season, Gozo scored one goal.

In December 2022, Moisa became the youngest player to sign with the Real Monarchs, at just 14 years, 7 months, and 26 days old.
With RSL Academy, Moisa helped lead the U-15 squad to a quarterfinal berth at the Generation Adidas Cup and a second-consecutive appearance in the MLS NEXT Cup Final.
During the 2022 MLS NEXT Cup, Moisa posted two assists, including one on the game-winning goal in the quarterfinal match. The following season, Moisa recorded one goal and two assists across the first 10 games as a captain.
