SAN ANTONIO — San Antonio FC announced on Friday the club has signed midfielder Nicky Hernandez for the upcoming 2025 season.
Hernandez returns to San Antonio after joining the team on loan from FC Dallas in 2022.
“We are happy to welcome Nicky Hernandez back to San Antonio,” SAFC Sporting Director Marco Ferruzzi said in a statement. “Nicky was a key part of our team during our 2022 championship season, and he has continued to develop his game and bring success to the clubs he’s been a part of. He is a dynamic box to box midfielder who will help set the tone for our squad.”
During his time with SAFC in 2022, Hernandez posted two goals and seven assists in 24 matches. He spent the 2023 season with New Mexico United, where he scored six goals and recorded three assists in 2,226 minutes.
The signing caps off a huge week of news for SAFC, who announced Carlos Llamosa as its next head coach, the third head coach in club history.
The USL Championship also announced its upcoming season schedule, which will see San Antonio FC open the 2025 season on March 8 against Monterey Bay F.C.
