New York City FC signed another 14-year-old.

Kyle Bonagura of ESPN reported the MLS club signed Maximo Carrizo to a homegrown contract after he turned 14 years old on Monday. The deal runs through the 2027 campaign with a team option for 2028.

New York also signed 14-year-old Christian McFarlane to a deal in September.

Carrizo is now the youngest signing in MLS history after breaking the record Axel Kei set in January when he signed with Real Salt Lake at 14 years and 15 days old.

“It’s an honor for me and my family to make MLS history by becoming the League’s youngest player to sign a First Team contract,” Carrizo said in a statement. “This is an incredible Club with amazing people, I’d like to thank everyone at NYCFC for believing in me and helping me take the next step in my career. I know I’m young and I have a lot to improve, but I am ready for the challenge and will work hard every day to show everyone what I am capable of.”

Bonagura noted Carrizo is not expected to be a contributor for New York’s first team this season but could appear for NYCFC II in the MLS NEXT Pro League when play begins in March.

New York is looking to defend its MLS Cup title but lost its season opener to the LA Galaxy on Sunday.

ロシア、停戦交渉団派遣の用意 ウクライナの中立化と非軍事化が条件

ウクライナのゼレンスキー大統領は25日、ロシアのプーチン大統領に停戦交渉を呼び掛けた。インタファクス通信によると、ロシアのペスコフ大統領報道官はプーチン氏がこれに応じ、国防省や外務省の代表団をベラルーシの首都ミンスクに派遣する用意があると述べた。ウクライナの中立化と非軍事化が条件とした。中国国営メディアによると、プーチン氏は25日、中国の習近平国家主席との電話会談で、ウクライナ側とハイレベル協議をする意思があると伝えた。これまでゼレンスキー政権との対話には消極的だった。モスクワで記者会見したロシアのラブロフ外相は、ゼレンスキー氏は親ロ派が一部を実効支配する東部紛争解決に向けた「ミンスク合意」を履行しないと公言していたのに、今になってウクライナの中立化についての交渉を口にし始めたと指摘していた。(共同)
