The New England Revolution added depth to the midfield Wednesday morning when the club announced the signing of Ugandan midfielder Allan Oyirwoth.
Oyirwoth arrives in New England after developing with Ugandan clubs like MYDA FC, Amor Young Heroes, Pakwach Super Eagles, Mawokota, and Gomba.
When Oyirwoth turns 18 on January 23, the Ugandan midfielder will sign a contract through the 2028 season with a club option for 2029 that will see him occupy a spot on the supplemental roster.
Despite only being 17, the Amor, Pakwach, Uganda, native already has two caps with the Uganda senior national team.
“Allan is a talented young midfielder with a tremendous upside and I’m excited to help him reach his potential,” head coach Caleb Porter said. “At only 17, Allan is gifted technically and has a frame and range athletically that profiles well for MLS. With time to develop in our training environment, I’m confident he can blossom into an impact midfielder for our first team.”
