  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Charlotte already boast reigning MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Kristijan Kahlina, who is under contract through 2026 with a club option for 2027. Still, the team saw the move as a chance to further bolster its depth in net. However, it leaves Callender in a similar position to where he was in Miami - fighting for minutes. 

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Callender has been called up by the U.S. men's national team in 2023, but has yet to make an appearance for the Americans.
