The Columbus Crew signed goalkeeper Nicholas Hagen through the 2026 season with options for 2027 and 2028, the club announced Thursday.

The 28-year-old Guatemala international made his MLS debut in 2024 and appeared in seven matches (six starts) across all competitions, including a 3-1 victory over LAFC in the Leagues Cup Final.

“Nicholas is an important member of our goalkeeper group who showcased his quality in several performances in 2024, including during our Leagues Cup championship run,” Crew general manager Issa Tall said. “In addition to his experience on the international stage, he is committed to his personal development and the team’s collective success, and we are pleased that he will remain a part of our Club.”

Hagen played professionally in Israel, Norway, Azerbaijan and Guatemala before signing with Columbus.

He has earned 47 caps for Guatemala, most recently starting the squad’s Concacaf Nations League match against Costa Rica on Oct. 16.
