The Columbus Crew signed midfielder Daniel Gazdag to a contract extension through 2027 on Wednesday.

The deal includes an option for 2028 for the 29-year-old Designated Player from Hungary.

The Crew acquired Gazdag from the Philadelphia Union last month in a cash exchange worth up to $4.5 million.

“We are pleased to reach this agreement with Daniel and secure his long-term future with the club,” said general manager Issa Tall. “Since he arrived in Columbus last month, we have seen first-hand Daniel’s talents as a player and his great presence in the locker room, and we are thrilled that he will remain a part of our Club for years to come.”

He has featured in three MLS matches (two starts) since joining Columbus but has yet to dent the score sheet.

“I am very happy to have signed a new contract with the Crew,” Gazdag said. “As my family and I settle into our new home, I can fully focus on what I am here for, which is to win games and titles with the Crew!”

Gazdag departed Philadelphia as the club’s all-time leading scorer with 72 goals in 161 appearances across all competitions from 2021-25. He made the MLS Best XI in 2022.
