Charlotte FC today announced the Club has signed defender Nathan Byrne to a contract until 2024 with an option for 2025.
The 30-year-old right back will occupy an international roster slot on the Club’s 2022 roster.
Byrne appeared in 373 league games in the English Championship and League One totaling 15 goals and 44 assists across the two divisions. He’s played the last four full seasons in the Championship with Wigan Athletic and Derby County.
The Englishman started 41 out of 46 league games in each of the last two Championship seasons for Derby County where he teamed up with current CLTFC player Kamil Jozwiak.
He also brings to Charlotte significant cup experience including a magical run to the FA Cup Quarterfinals with then League One side Wigan Athletic which saw Byrne play all 180 minutes in back-to-back upsets over Premier League sides West Ham United and Manchester City.
