It is likely that most USL Pro players have never heard the name Kristian Nicht, but they soon will know him as one of the best and most accomplished goalkeepers to ever set foot in the United Soccer Leagues having played over130 first team matches with Budesliga 1, 2 and Norwegian Tippeligaen clubs.  

The Rochester Rhinos signed Kristian Nicht to be their stalwart between the posts after Neil Kitson transferred to England.  The Rhinos made an impressive bid for Nicht while the 29 year old GK had options within MLS and back home in Germany.  "Signing for Rochester and playing in the United States is a dream come true.  I have always wanted to play in the United States and move to this country every since I visited twelve years ago.  I am going to give my best to help bring Rochester another league championship and to go far in the US Open Cup," said Nicht.  While waiting for his P-1 Visa, Nicht is currently back home in Germany staying fit and will join his new Rhino teammates for pre-season.  Click HERE for some highlights from the 6 foot 5 German GK with his time at Karlsruher SC.
