What happened: The San Jose Earthquakes have signed Scotland national team goalkeeper Angus Gunn to a contract running through the 2030 MLS season. Gunn arrives in California following his release from Premier League side Nottingham Forest, bringing recent World Cup experience to the roster.

Why it matters: The Earthquakes secure veteran depth in net as they push for a high playoff seed under head coach Bruce Arena. Gunn is expected to compete for minutes with Daniel and Earl William Edwards Jr. as San Jose mounts a title challenge.

By the numbers: San Jose sits second in the Western Conference through 15 games, trailing the Vancouver Whitecaps only on goal difference. The club is third in the overall MLS standings.

What to watch: The Earthquakes return to MLS action on July 22 when they host Orlando City.
