Charlotte FC announced the signing Friday of forward Rodolfo Aloko through June 2030.
The 19-year-old Benin international's contract includes an option for the 2030-31 season and he will occupy a U22 Initiative roster slot.
Aloko racked up six goals and two assists in just five matches this season with MLS Next Pro affiliate Crown Legacy FC. He was named the league's Player of the Month for March.
'Rodolfo is another example of our growing list of young talents coming through our development pathway, and we are happy to see him move so quickly to the first team,' general manager Zoran Krneta said.
'... His versatility at the forward positions with great physical attributes and an extremely strong work ethic will continue to keep his ceiling high.'
Internationally, Aloko has earned seven caps with Benin and helped the team reach the Round of 16 at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
