The Colorado Rapids signed midfielder Ali Fadal to a two-year contract through the 2026 season, with club options for each of the following two seasons.

"We're thrilled to welcome Ali to the Colorado Rapids," said Fran Taylor, the club's sporting director. "Ali is a dynamic player who has gained valuable experience in one of Europe's most respected development systems. We look forward to helping him grow as a player and seeing him make an impact in Major League Soccer."

Since joining Valencia in 2023, Fadal made 31 appearances and had one assist.

A native of Ghana, Fadal trained in Spain's youth soccer system and also at The Soccer Institute of Montverde Academy in Florida.
