San Diego FC acquired defender Oscar Verhoeven on loan from the San Jose Earthquakes.

The deal announced Monday runs through the rest of this season, with the Quakes receiving $100,000 in general allocation money. The agreement includes a purchase option in exchange for 2026 GAM and a sell-on percentage.

Verhoeven, 18, appeared in seven MLS matches (five starts) for San Jose from 2024-25, including one appearance as a substitute this season.

"We're pleased to welcome Oscar to San Diego as we continue to add competition to our group," San Diego sporting director Tyler Heaps said. "He is a high potential fullback and strong competitor that we believe will benefit from being in our environment as he continues to develop."

Verhoeven, a California native, represented the United States at the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup.
