San Jose Earthquakes have signed Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn to a multi-year deal. The 30-year-old joins the Quakes after playing for Scotland in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

What happened?

Gunn signed with the Earthquakes through the 2029-30 Major League Soccer season, pending the receipt of his international transfer certificate and P-1 visa. He will occupy an international roster slot that the LA Galaxy originally acquired from the Earthquakes on Feb. 6 but are obligated to return to San Jose at the opening of the Secondary Transfer Window on Monday.

Why it matters for San Jose Earthquakes

The signing of Gunn is a significant boost to the Earthquakes' squad, given his experience in the English Premier League and international football. As the team currently stands 10th in Major League Soccer with 41 points from 34 games, recent form WLWLL, and 22 points behind leaders San Diego, Gunn's addition could be crucial in their push for the playoffs.

What comes next?

Gunn's integration into the team will be key as the Earthquakes look to improve their league standing and make a push for the playoffs. Their next fixture is against Los Angeles Galaxy on August 20, 2026, away from home, and they will be looking to build on their current form and make a strong finish to the season. With 60 goals scored and 63 conceded, the Earthquakes will be looking to tighten up their defense and make the most of Gunn's goalkeeping abilities.
