Charlotte FC defender Adilson Malanda has signed a new contract with the Club through 2026 with a Club option for 2027.
The 22-year-old central defender has blossomed into one of the league’s brightest talents and has featured 56 times in MLS play since joining in August 2022.
Malanda originally joined the Club from Rodez AF in France’s Ligue 2, having played only 36 matches of senior football.
The Frenchman is the third player under the age of 23 to sign a new contract with the Club this season, following center back partner Andrew Privett and winger Kerwin Vargas.
