The Houston Dynamo signed midfielder Duane Holmes to a two-year contract on Tuesday.

Financial terms were not disclosed by the team, which holds club options through 2028.

Holmes, 30, recorded two appearances with the United States Men's National team. He made his national team debut in June 2019 against Jamaica and played again versus Venezuela during the same camp.

"Duane is a versatile player who brings valuable experience from one of the most intense competitions in Europe," Dynamo president of soccer Pat Onstad said. "Capable of contributing as a central midfielder or wide attacker, he adds ball progression and chance creation in our possession-based style of play."

Holmes collected 20 goals and 15 assists while playing in 246 league matches with Huddersfield Town (2013-16 and 2021-23), Derby County (2018-21) and Preston North End (2023-25) of England's EFL Championship.
