Career

Raised in Kearny, New Jersey, Borges attended Kearny High School and briefly played prep soccer for the school's varsity team before spending the remainder of his youth career with the New York Red Bulls Academy. In February 2015, Borges signed a letter of intent to play college soccer at the University of Michigan. A month later, he signed an academy level contract with USL club New York Red Bulls II, which allowed him to play for the club without forfeiting his college eligibility. He made his debut a day later in a goalless draw against Rochester Rhinos.
In his freshman year with the Wolverines, Borges made only 11 appearances, starting in five of them. He missed a portion of the season due to the fact he was on U.S. U-20 national team duty.
He also played in the Premier Development League for New York Red Bulls U-23.
He was drafted by the Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer in the 2019 MLS SuperDraft.

Borges has represented the United States in the under-18 and under-20 level.
