Franco had 10 goals and 16 assists in 116 appearances for the club across all competitions from 2018-22.
“Ivan is an exciting young attacking talent who we hope can flourish in our environment in Houston,” Dynamo general manager Pat Onstad said. “… Ivan is a difference maker who can play across the front three attacking positions, and we can’t wait to work with him in Houston.”
Internationally, Franco made his senior debut with Paraguay in a 4-2 win over Jordan in a 2019 friendly.
