Los Angeles FC and star striker Carlos Vela agreed to a contract extension, multiple media reported Wednesday.
The deal reportedly runs “at least” through 2023 — although the contract still is to be signed and made official.
The 2019 MLS Most Valuable Player will remain a designated player on the LAFC roster. His contract was set to expire on June 30.
Vela, 33, has four goals and two assists in seven matches this season. He has 61 goals and 37 assists in 93 games (83 starts) since joining LAFC in 2018.
In international play, Vela has 19 goals in 72 career appearances for Mexico, and he played in the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
