Nathan Byrne
33-Year-Old
Charlotte FC
MLS
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Byrne held his own at right-back during his second full season as a starter in Charlotte. He logged two assists, 80 clearances and 72 crosses, only missing three matches in the regular season due to a minor muscle injury. He averaged 15 accurate forward zone passes per contest, maintaining a 79-percent pass accuracy. With Charlotte set to have little change to its back line, look for him to have a similar campaign. On the downside, he has no goals and just three assists across 64 starts the last two seasons.
Solid comeback season
Byrne recorded 20 starts in 20 MLS appearances, including the playoffs, during the 2025 season.
ANALYSIS
Byrne's season was paused early on after a neck injury saw him miss three months. However, since returning, he was able to slide right back into the starting XI and remain fit to end the year, making 55 clearances, 30 tackles, and holding on to nine clean sheets. As long as the keeper is able to stay healthy, he will remain a top starter at left back for Charlotte through 2026.
