The 21-year-old center back is under contract through 2029-30 with an option for 2030-31. He will occupy U22 Initiative and international roster slots.
'Diego is a young and exciting prospect at center back who has experienced a quick rise from Serie B in Brazil to showing excellent performances in Hungary,' SKC president of soccer operations and general manager David Lee said. 'Diego has many attributes that made him a coveted target for a number of teams around the world with his size, athleticism and quality on the ball.'Borges made seven appearances in the Hungarian top flight. He previously played in Brazil for Santos FC's U-20 squad and Amazonas FC in Serie B.
