NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Nashville Soccer Club announced today the trade of defender Lukas MacNaughton to D.C. United in a deal that could result in as much as $200,000 in General Allocation Money (GAM) if MacNaughton meets certain performance requirements.
MacNaughton was acquired by Nashville SC in a 2023 trade with Toronto FC and has since appeared in 34 matches across all competitions (Major League Soccer, Leagues Cup, Concacaf Champions Cup, Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup) for the Boys in Gold. He was limited to just 10 matches in 2024 due to an ankle injury suffered April 20 at Inter Miami CF.
