With the timelines and roadmap made official, the remaining question that looms: How will Pro/Rel work between these systems? Especially curious now will be the USLC <> USL1 changes as the D3 league moves to regional format. What do you want to see for Pro/Rel?

It's official. USL Premier will operate as a single national table, with a long-term target of 20 clubs, scheduled for 2028. USL Championship will operate with 20 clubs. League One will organize regionally, allowing clubs to compete closer to home and build local rivalries.

Agustín “Pity” Rodríguez on loan from Argentinian Primera División side Club Atlético Lanús for the 2026 USL Championship season. I "pity" the fool who messes with our new #RIFC midfielder loanee. The Argentinian scored two goals in five appearances for Lanús II last season.

Albert Dikwa returns to Pittsburgh for an undisclosed fee. He was a player with great expectations and an even greater work rate. I'll never forget your hat trick against the HoP, your brace vs NCFC to carry us into a 2nd ECF and all the moments in between. Thank you for everything Chico.

@rhodeislandfc.bsky.social has started its offseason roster signings with the addition of 24-year-old forward Leo Afonso from Atlanta United and Inter Miami FC. Afonso has scored 2 goals and earned 1 assist across 23 competitions in the MLS.
