The New York Red Bulls signed midfielder Daniel Edelman to a new four-year MLS contract through 2027.

The deal announced Thursday for the 20-year-old New Jersey native includes a 2028 team option.

Edelman has recorded two goals and one assist in 39 MLS matches (32 starts) over the past three seasons.

"We are very excited to keep Daniel at the club for the long-term and continue with us," NYRB head of sport Jochen Schneider said. "Daniel exemplifies all our core values and has a great winning mentality. He is a player that leads by example and will continue to represent our club in the best way on and off the field."

Edelman ranked No. 21 on the 2023 MLS 22 Under 22 list. He captained the United States Under-20 team at the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup in May.
