Cavan Sullivan Sets Two MLS Teenage Records

Cavan Sullivan and Philadelphia Union
5 September 2026

Philadelphia Union teenager Cavan Sullivan became the first teenager in MLS history to record a goal contribution in five consecutive matches after scoring against Montreal. He also passed Freddy Adu for the most MLS goal contributions by a player aged 16 or younger.

Sullivan has earned more regular minutes since the spring and already has a future move arrangement with Manchester City. His form is strengthening his case for a United States call-up as Mauricio Pochettino begins reshaping the squad after the World Cup.
