Nashville SC announced the signing of goalkeeper Ben Martino to a homegrown deal on Friday.
The club acquired his rights from the Philadelphia Union in exchange for $50,000 in 2024 general allocation money.
The Union could receive an additional $100,000 in GAM if Martino meets certain performance-based incentives.
Philadelphia also retains a percentage of any future transfer fee for the 20-year-old Pittsburgh native.
Martino spent the past two seasons at Virginia Tech, recording six clean sheets in 34 games.
