Orlando City extend F Duncan McGuire through 2027

Orlando City SC signed forward Duncan McGuire to an extension through the 2027 MLS season.

The deal announced Thursday includes an option for 2028 for the 23-year-old U.S. international.

McGuire has recorded 20 goals and five assists in 48 matches (34 starts) over the past two seasons.

“We are incredibly happy to have signed Duncan to a new contract and for his desire to stay here with us in Orlando,” general manager Luiz Muzzi said in a news release.

“Since he’s arrived here, he’s been a vital piece of our team and he will continue to be for the foreseeable future. We’re excited to see what more Duncan can accomplish, as he helps us push for more championships and as he fights for a spot on the U.S. roster for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.”

A 2023 first-round draft pick, McGuire delivered 13 goals during his rookie campaign with Orlando City.

“I’m really happy to get this deal done and know that I can call Orlando home for the next three years. It’s a great place to be, and I’m excited to see what the future holds here,” said McGuire, who represented Team USA at the Paris Olympics.

“It means a lot that the club has shown trust and faith in me, and that goes a long way. I hope I can repay the favor by continuing to do what I’ve been doing the past year, for both the team and the fans.”
