PORTLAND, Ore. - The Portland Timbers today announced that the club has mutually parted ways with forward Nathan Fogaça. Originally signed in 2022, Fogaça departs the club after spending three seasons with Portland.
"We want to thank Nathan for his contributions during his time with the Portland Timbers. He has expressed his desire to look at other opportunities that might afford him the playing time he is seeking, and this decision allows him the ability to do so," said Timbers General Manager Ned Grabavoy. "The Portland Timbers would like to wish Nathan all the best in his career going forward."
Fogaça, 25, joined the Timbers on May 5 of the 2022 season.

Fogaça made his debut on May 14 and registered a brace, his first two goals for the club, in a 7-2 victory over Sporting Kansas City at Providence Park. The forward scored his last goal for the club this season against Houston Dynamo FC on June 1, helping the Timbers to earn a come-from-behind draw by tying the match with a late second-half goal.
