Philadelphia Union captain Alejandro Bedoya is reportedly coming back for another go around.

According to a report from José Roberto Nuñez, Bedoya and the Philadelphia Union have reached an agreement on a one-year deal for the veteran who has made 247 appearances in all competitions in his eight seasons in Chester.

Bedoya’s contract expired after the 2023 season. The Athletic reported in mid-October that Bedoya was informed that he would not be brought back.

Head coach Jim Curtin, however, has expressed publicly his interest in having his captain return. Bedoya will turn 37 in April.
