Andrew Privett - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Dropped out of starting contention Privett recorded 19 starts in 23 MLS appearances during the 2025 season/

Impact Privett had a promising start to the season, getting consistent starts at center back for Charlotte. However, since the return of Nathan Byrne and the signing of Harry Toffolo, the defender fell completely out of contention to start, playing only three times since July 16. He will likely remain a depth option to start off 2026, though could be the first player called up for any injuries to the back line for Charlotte.

On bench versus Orlando Privett (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's matchup against Orlando City.

Impact Privett wasn't fit enough to start, with Bill Tuiloma getting the nod as Adilson Malanda's center-back partner Saturday. However, it seems that the issue that kept Privett doubtful during the week wasn't too significant, so he'll push to regain a starting position in subsequent weeks. That event would be a boost to the team's defensive strength given that his average of 4.6 clearances per game is the second-best on the squad.

Doubtful to play Saturday Privett is doubtful to play Saturday against Orlando City SC due to an undisclosed injury, Dean Smith told media Thursday.

Impact Privett has not been ruled out of Saturday's game yet, but the defender might not be ready to feature this weekend. That would create a huge void on Charlotte's defensive line, as Privett has started in 17 of his 18 appearances this season. If he's out, expect Bill Tuiloma to take his place in the XI since Tim Ream (not injury related) is out on international duty with the USMNT.

Solid effort in victory Privett registered three tackles (one won) and seven clearances in Saturday's 2-0 victory versus Toronto FC.

Impact Privett was active as part of a four-man defense that limited the opposition to seven shots during Saturday's game. The central man increased his season totals to 66 clearances, 20 tackles and five clean sheets across 15 appearances. After being fairly reliable for passes and clearances over the last five contests, he should continue to make a center-back partnership alongside Adilson Malanda in upcoming fixtures.

Starts at Austin Privett (knee) is part of his team's starting lineup to face Austin FC on Saturday.

Impact Privett is available as expected after avoiding a significant issue, so he could deliver his usual defensive output in this game. With Privett getting the nod at center-back, Bill Tuiloma will have to wait for an opportunity as a substitute.

Injury not serious Privett underwent tests on his knee Thursday that revealed that his injury is nothing serious, per Carroll Walton of the Charlotte Ledger.

Impact Privett had a scary moment Wednesday where he felt something in his knee and was forced off against Columbus.

The defender had played in every minute of every match prior to Wednesday, averaging about four clearances per contest.

Injured knee Privett subbed out in the 73rd minute Wednesday with a knee injury. According to head coach Dean Smith, he "felt his knee open up slightly", per Nicky Wolcott of The Observer.

Impact Privett had to be taken off before the match ended with knee discomfort. This could leave him out for Saturday's match, especially after starting every match for Charlotte this season. If this is the case, the Bill Tuiloma and Adilson Malanda could be the pair to start at center back for the clash with Austin.

Another solid display Privett made two tackles (one won), nine clearances and one block while helping his side to keep a clean sheet during Saturday's 2-0 win over Philadelphia.

Impact Privett was dominant at the heart of the defense once again, pacing all players in clearances and imposing his will against opposing forward most of the time to help his team shutting the opposition down for the seventh time over the last 10 matches. Ranking third in clearances and ninth in blocks among all MLS players this season, the center-back is a must-have fantasy piece right now.

Solid defensively Privett recorded two tackles (two won) and five clearances in Wednesday's 2-2 draw against Orlando City SC.

Impact Privett was his usual imposing self in the backline, piling on defensive volume in a tough draw. The center-back will never offer much with the ball or going forward, but he's an effective defender and Charlotte's improved defense can give him decent chances at a clean sheet occasionally. Privett seems set as a mainstay in the backline as long as he can stay fit.
