Charlotte FC announced the transfers of defender Joao Pedro and forward Iuri Tavares on Wednesday.

Pedro, 22, went to Polish top-flight side Radomiak Radom, with Charlotte retaining a 40 percent sell-on clause.

Tavares, 24, headed to Croatian top-flight club NK Varazdin with a 20 percent sell-on clause.

Brazil’s Pedro had appeared in eight matches for Charlotte across all competitions since 2024.

“This permanent move for JP is in the best interest of both the player and the club,” said general manager Zoran Krneta. “We will wish him all the best throughout the rest of his career.”

Tavares, a Cape Verde international, had three goals and one assist in 33 MLS matches (eight starts) from 2024-25.

“He showed he belonged at the first-team level and was a great professional both on and off the pitch,” Krneta said of Tavares. “At this point in his career, a move for consistent playing time is important and we wish Iuri all the best in his career.”
