Overview

  • The club confirmed Turner on loan from Olympique Lyonnais through June 30, 2026, with an option to make the transfer permanent.
  • Revolution will cover the majority of his salary under the designated player arrangement before his roster status shifts to targeted allocation money eligibility in 2026.
  • Turner is set to train with New England next week and will be available for the August 9 match against D.C. United at Gillette Stadium.
  • The 31-year-old goalkeeper aims to secure consistent playing time to reclaim the U.S. national team starting role ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
  • He arrives to strengthen a Revolution side that has managed just one win in its last 14 games and recently fell out of playoff contention.
