Bruce Savage is one of the most popular and richest Soccer Manager who was born on December 21, 1960 in Hollywood, California, United States.
He joined the Atlanta Chiefs of the North American Soccer League in 1980 and played two seasons with the team. The Chiefs folded at the end of the 1981 season and the Portland Timbers purchased Savage’s contract from the Chiefs. However, the Timbers traded Savage to the Fort Lauderdale Strikers where he played the 1982 season. In 1983, the U.S. Soccer Federation attempted to create a more successful U.S. national team by entering the team into the NASL as a franchise. As a result, the Strikers loaned Savage to Team America for the 1983 season. However, the team stumbled to a 10-20 record and the bottom of the league standings in 1983 and USSF pulled it from the NASL at the end of the year. Savage returned to the Strikers who sold his contract to the Phoenix Pride of the Major Indoor Soccer League. In July 1984, the Pride sold Savage’s contract to the Baltimore Blast of Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL). Savage remained with the team through the 1991-1992 season when the MISL folded and the Blast moved to the National Professional Soccer League. Since Savage joined the Blast in 1981, he bounced between the outdoor NASL and indoor MISL until the end of the 1983 season when he devoted himself to the indoor game. Savage became a regular in the All Star games, being named the 1986-1987 MISL Defender of the Year and was a first team MISL All Star in 1986-1987 and 1988-1989. In February 2005, the Baltimore Blast inducted Savage into the team’s Hall of Fame.
In 1983, Savage earned his first cap with the national team in the team’s only game that year, a 2-0 victory over Haiti. In 1984, Savage was an integral part of the U.S. Olympic team which competed at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. He played all three games as the team ran to a 1-1-1 record and failed to qualify for the second round. In 1991, Bora Milutinović, recently hired as the national team coach, called Savage back into the team for the first time since 1984. Savage then played most of the national team games through the end of 1992. He earned a total of 16 caps.
