January 9, 2026
Espinoza is a new signing for Nashville through 2028 with options to extend through June 2029 and the 2029/30 season after ending his contract with San Jose Earthquakes prior to 2026, his new club announced Friday.
ANALYSIS
Espinoza adds attacking midfield strength to his new team, especially for his ability on the right flank and on set pieces. The two-time MLS All-Star finished the previous campaign with four goals and eight assists over 31 matches played. Before that, he had even more impressive periods, tallying double-digit scoring and assist totals in 2023 and 2024, respectively. He's currently expected to challenge Alex Muyl and Jonathan Perez (thigh) on the right wing.
