Philadelphia Union<\/a> striker Mikael Uhre<\/a> is out of contract and in negotiations about a new deal, the club announced Wednesday in their year-end roster update.<\/p>\n

Uhre has spent the past four seasons with Philadelphia, arriving in 2022 from Danish Superliga side Br\u00f8ndby IF as a then-club-record signing. He’s occupied a Designated Player roster spot and tallied 43g\/28a in 155 matches across all competitions.<\/p>\n

The Union are also in discussions with veteran midfielder Alejandro Bedoya<\/a> about a new deal. The former US international and 2014 FIFA World Cup<\/a> alum, who turns 39 in April, has the second-most appearances in club history (314). He joined Philly in 2016.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, the Union exercised their contract options for leading scorer Tai Baribo<\/a> and homegrown defender Nathan Harriel<\/a>. The club also recently signed midfielder Indiana Vassilev<\/a> to a new contract and exercised their option for defender Olwethu Makhanya<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In 2025, Philly won their second-ever Supporters’ Shield title. They earned a league-best 66 points in head coach Bradley Carnell’s first season, before losing in the Eastern Conference Semifinals of the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs.<\/p>\n
