Matt Turner's Loan with the Revolution Extended; New England Has Option to Buy GK From Lyon
The loan gives New England flexibility under MLS salary rules and an option to buy Turner’s contract after 2027.
- On Monday, the New England Revolution extended American goalkeeper Matt Turner's loan from French club Olympique Lyonnais through December 31, 2026, with an option to extend through December 31, 2027.
- Turner is now classified as a "TAM-eligible player for New England," allowing the club to fit his contract under the salary cap using Targeted Allocation Money, a change from his previous Designated Player status.
- Revolution GM and chief soccer officer Chris Tierney said Turner will "continue to be the gold standard for MLS goalkeepers," noting the 2021 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year has made over 190 career club appearances.
- Retaining the 32-year-old goalkeeper provides a vital boost, as moving him from a Designated Player spot potentially creates salary cap flexibility for the Revolution to pursue another major signing.
- Following the league's World Cup pause, the Revolution return to Gillette Stadium on July 22 to face Toronto FC, currently holding fourth place in the Eastern Conference.
