Ashley Westwood News: Main set piece taker

Weatwood made a start in all 35 appearances, including the playoffs, during the 2025 season.

Westwood has been the heart of Charlotte's midfield since 2023. He led the team in set-piece situations with 85, while also scoring once with four assists. The midfielder will enter the final year of his contract, but given his importance and consistency, the team will likely prioritize keeping him beyond the 2026 season.
