Charlotte FC has officially signed forward Rodolfo Aloko until June 2030.
The 19-year-old player from Benin has a contract option for the 2030-31 season and will be on the U22 Initiative roster.
This season, Aloko scored six goals and provided two assists in just five matches for Crown Legacy FC, Charlotte’s MLS Next Pro team. He was named Player of the Month for March.
“Rodolfo is another example of the young talents emerging from our development program, and we’re pleased to see him advance to the first team so quickly,” said general manager Zoran Krneta.
“His ability to play various forward positions, along with his strong physical skills and work ethic, will help him continue to improve.”
Aloko has represented Benin seven times and was part of the team that reached the Round of 16 in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
