New York City FC has re-signed goalkeeper Josh Saunders to a multi-year contract extension, the latest in a number of re-ups around MLS this week.
Saunders started 33 games and was a bright spot in a difficult year for NYCFC, which missed the playoffs in their inaugural season.
"Retaining Josh was always part of our offseason plans," NYCFC director Claudio Reyna said in a statement. "He is a tremendous leader and displays all of the personal and professional qualities we look for in a New York City FC player. He had a great season last year and clearly has a special relationship with our supporters.
