“We are happy to have Kieran joining us and bringing in more competition to our defending group,” said San Diego sporting director Tyler Heaps. “He has all the tools to continue to develop in his professional career in San Diego and we’re excited to support him.”

After playing college soccer for Georgetown, Sargeant began his professional career in 2024 as a Houston homegrown player. 

Sargeant recorded 1g/2a in 26 games for Houston Dynamo 2 during the 2024 MLS NEXT Pro campaign. He spent last season on loan with USL Championship side Lexington SC, tallying 0g/5a across 31 appearances.
