Timeline

1981

Maykel Galindo Castañeda (born January 28, 1981, in Villa Clara) is a Cuban former professional footballer.

2002

A rising star in the youth ranks of the Cuba national team, he made his debut in a January 2002 friendly match against Guatemala.

2005

Galindo then made the senior squad for the 2005 CONCACAF Gold Cup, to be played in the United States.

He has earned a total of 35 caps, scoring 12 goals.

He represented his country in 3 FIFA World Cup qualifying matches and played at 3 CONCACAF Gold Cup final tournaments.

After scoring in a 3–1 loss to Costa Rica, Galindo sought asylum in the United States and successfully defected in Seattle, Washington.

In an interview with Irish radio show Team 33 on Newstalk, he said of his defection: "I made my decision when I went to United States and thought 'I'm not going back to Cuba'. I remember when I called my Mum, I said 'Mum, I'm not going back. I'm going to stay here, fighting'. She's crying but at the end of the day, she said 'You're my son, you're going to be alone over there. Take care, we support you with whatever you do'. And it's been almost 12 years."

Galindo signed with Seattle Sounders of the USL First Division in 2005 but struggled through injuries during his two seasons there.

2007

He then signed with Chivas USA of Major League Soccer prior to the 2007 season and became a regular starter for Chivas.

On April 21, 2007, Galindo scored two goals in the first ten minutes of the match in a 4–0 win over Real Salt Lake.

2010

He remained with the club through the 2010 season, though he was briefly loaned to FC Tampa Bay of the USSF Division 2 Professional League in 2010.

2011

A new regime hired by Chivas USA before the 2011 season deemed Galindo expendable and his contract option was declined on January 21, 2011.

He spent the 2011 preseason training with FC Dallas though Chivas USA still held his rights.

FC Dallas finally traded a Supplemental draft pick for his rights and signed him on April 1, 2011.

Galindo stayed with FC Dallas for the 2011 campaign.

2012
