The Portland Timbers have acquired $100,000 in 2025 General Allocation Money (GAM) from Charlotte FC in exchange for midfielder Eryk Williamson, it was announced today. As part of the trade, the Timbers could receive up to $350,000 in GAM if certain performance metrics are reached. The Timbers retain a sell-on percentage for Williamson if he is transferred outside of MLS.
The Timbers acquired Williamson’s Homegrown Player rights in 2018 from D.C. United in exchange for $100,000 General Allocation Money, $100,000 Targeted Allocation Money, an international spot, and a natural second-round pick in the 2020 MLS SuperDraft. In his seven years with the club, Williamson made 113 appearances across all competitions for the Timbers, tallying six goals and 21 assists. He also logged 34 matches played for T2, recording seven goals and 11 assists in USL play.
The Alexandra, Va., native has earned six caps for the U.S. Men’s National Team, most recently making two appearances in January of 2023. Williamson made his debut for the USMNT in Gold Cup 2021, logging four caps in the tournament. Notably, he started and played 87 minutes in the final against Mexico and tallied an assist to help the U.S. earn a 1-0 victory and claim the title.
