New York City FC signed forward Arnau Farnos to a first-team contract through the rest of this season, the team announced Saturday.

The deal also has an option for an extension through the 2027-28 season.

Farnos, 23, previously signed four short-term agreements with the franchise.

"Arnau has taken advantage of his opportunities with both the first team and New York City FC II and has shown that he belongs," NYCFC sporting director Todd Dunivant said. "His soccer IQ has earned the trust of his teammates and the staff, and we are looking forward to his continued progression."

Farnos made his MLS debut against the Vancouver Whitecaps FC on April 11. He also competed against FC Cincinnati on April 22. He appeared as a substitute in both games.

He recorded a goal in NYCFC's 5-2 win over Westchester SC in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup.

"I'm super thankful for the club and for the staff for giving me the opportunity to be part of this team," Farnos said. "I'm really happy to continue my journey as a professional soccer player and look forward to continuing to develop and help this team achieve its goals this season."
