The Philadelphia Union placed defender Ian Glavinovich on the season-ending injury list on Thursday.

The 23-year-old Argentina international is recovering from surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee.

Glavinovich sustained the injury on April 5 and finished the season with one goal in four MLS matches (three starts).

“This is a tough moment for Ian and for the team,” Union sporting director Ernst Tanner said. “We know the impact he can make, and he’s approached this season, and injury, with the utmost determination and professionalism. We’ll continue to support Ian as he continues his recovery.”

Glavinovich made his MLS debut in the Feb. 22 season opener against Orlando City SC and scored his first goal in a 1-0 victory over St. Louis City SC on March 22.

The Union acquired Glavinovich on a one-year loan from Newell’s Old Boys on Dec. 20, 2024.
