TRANSFER TRACKER STATUS: Signing

The LA Galaxy have signed midfielder Justin Haak via free agency, the club announced Monday.

The 24-year-old is under contract through 2026 with an option for June 2027. 

Haak enjoyed a breakout 2025 campaign with New York City FC, producing 1g/4a while starting all 34 regular-season games as they reached the Eastern Conference Final. 

Since debuting in 2019, the NYCFC homegrown has made 111 appearances across all competitions. He was a part of their MLS Cup 2021 and Campeones Cup 2022-winning squads.

“We are very excited to welcome Justin to the LA Galaxy,” said general manager Will Kuntz. “Justin is a positionally versatile player who will be able to contribute in several roles. His growth from homegrown academy signing to an every-game starter is a testament to his work ethic, his technical ability, and his defensive instincts. 

“We look forward to Justin’s contributions to the Galaxy as we continue to put together a competitive squad for the 2026 season.”

— LA Galaxy (@LAGalaxy) December 29, 2025

Haak is the Galaxy’s second signing this winter, following the acquisition of former MLS Defender of the Year Jakob Glesnes from the Philadelphia Union. Primarily a defender last season, Haak has also played in central midfield.

LA conceded 66 goals in 2025, tied for the second most in MLS. 

The six-time MLS Cup champions are seeking a return to the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs in 2026. They missed out last season with a 14th-place finish in the Western Conference (30 points).
