One interesting thing to note: With proposed/expected salary cap changes coming in the future (hopefully next summer)... depending on contract for Mark McKenzie and Kai Wagner... it's possible the Union will still have a ton of flexibility
Plus with so many homegrowns, team will have plenty of salary cap space for key additions if/when necessary. Whether that means McKenzie and Wagner remain DPs or not... new rules should be beneficial for this team in particular
đŁđșđž BREAKING: The Philadelphia Union are finalizing a deal to sign USMNT center back Mark McKenzie from FC Toulouse in January, per sources.

- Toulouse made clear no summer departure, so move for January agreed

MLS fanbases expect their front office to uphold high standards of integrity, safety, and accountability.
Involving Gavin Wilkinson in the @SJEarthquakes organization, even as an advisor or consultant, sends a harmful message to supporters, community partners, staff, & players.

This summer reminded us why the World Cup matters. It belongs to the supporters, players, volunteers, member associations, and communities that have built it over generationsânot to outside investors seeking financial returns.

Looks like the Union are off FIFAâs registration ban list.
As theyâre in Marbella and itâs after midnight there (and at FIFA headquarters in Zurich), I canât get a comment from them at this hour.
But I just checked FIFAâs site (knowledge.fifa.com/registratâŠ) and they are not there.

Bradley Carnell on the FIFA registration ban:
"I believe it's a small issue. You know, Ernst and I have caught up about itânot in great lengthâbut yeah, it's a minor issue. It's pretty close to being resolved from what I'm hearing and won't impact us going forward over the next couple of weeks."
As of the writing of this post, Philadelphia remains on the list.

The Philadelphia Union are currently listed on FIFA's Registration Ban list.
According to FIFA, "This list includes clubs temporarily prohibited from registering new players due to various infractions, such as financial disputes or regulatory breaches. Serving as an essential tool for Member Associations, confederations, clubs, players, and agents, the FIFA Registration Ban List helps ensure transparency and compliance within the sport, allowing stakeholders to stay informed about which clubs are ineligible to sign new players during the ban period."
The Union have been banned from registering players since December 4, 2024, with the ban set to last for three registration periods.
Notably, the Union are the only American club currently on the list.
For context, in January 2024, the LA Galaxy faced a similar ban due to a $4,500 training compensation dispute, which was lifted once resolved.
The Philadelphia Union did not immediately respond to my request for comment.
