In a strategic move to improve their defense, the San Jose Earthquakes acquired left back DeJuan Jones from the Columbus Crew ahead of the MLS transfer deadline. The team dispatched $175,000 in general allocation money for the current season and an additional $250,000 for 2026, alongside an international roster slot. Jones brings considerable experience, with 157 MLS appearances and national team exposure, having played under coach Bruce Arena previously. With a challenging season marked by defensive struggles, his arrival is seen as a crucial step to strengthen the Quakes' backline.
The Quakes will send out $175 in general allocation money for this season and $250,000 in 2026 funds, plus the roster slot for this season.
Arena stated, 'Jones is a welcomed addition to our team. He is an experienced player in the league and has the versatility to play in both our backline and midfield.'
