Former Philadelphia Union midfielder has found a new home back in Europe, signing with Polish top flight club Jagiellonia Białystok.

Flach, 23, has signed a 2.5-year contract with an option to extend an additional 12 months. He will wear the No. 31 with the team, which is currently in third place in the table in the Ekstraklasa, just three points off the leader.

The team is currently in Turkey playing friendlies prior to the restart of the season on Feb. 2.

Flach was out of contract following the 2024 season with the Philadelphia Union and according to Sporting Director Ernst Tanner wanted to return closer to his family in Germany.

Over four seasons in Chester, the Humble, Texas-born midfielder logged more than 10,000 minutes in 145 appearances in all competitions.
