Now, Buck reunites with Arena after MLS&#8217;s all-time winningest coach joined San Jose last November.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNoel Buck is a player with excellent potential,\u201d Arena said. \u201cI enjoyed his development in our previous time together, and I\u2019m confident he can complement our midfield in both central and wide positions. I look forward to again working with Noel and welcome him to the San Jose Earthquakes.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Buck compiled 5g\/2a in 47 regular-season games with New England, but fell out of favor under head coach Caleb Porter (Arena&#8217;s successor). Last year, he was loaned to Premier League side Southampton and featured six times for their U-21s.<\/p>\n<p>Buck has played for England&#8217;s U-19 and U-20 national teams, scoring once in 10 appearances.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Noel Buck&#8217;s career in New England from an Academy player to first team contributor is another good example for young players in our pro pathway,&#8221; Revs sporting director Curt Onalfo said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Noel has been part of the Revolution family since age 12, and we take pride in being part of his development as a player and as a person.
