Tyrell Malacia transfer to FC Cincinnati

Overview

Former Manchester United defender Tyrell Malacia, a free agent following the expiration of his contract, began training with MLS side FC Cincinnati to maintain fitness while seeking a new club. His previous tenure in England was marked by significant injury struggles, including a knee issue that sidelined him for over 500 days.

Following this trial period, FC Cincinnati officially signed the 27-year-old Dutch left-back to a contract running through June 2027, with an option for the 2027/28 season. To facilitate the transfer, FC Cincinnati acquired an international slot from St. Louis CITY SC in exchange for $200,000 in General Allocation Money (GAM). Club General Manager Chris Albright stated that Malacia’s technical and defensive qualities will provide significant value to the squad.
