The New England Revolution re-signed defender Andrew Farrell for his club-record 13th season on Monday.

The 32-year-old veteran will also take on a dual role as an assistant coach in the Revolution Academy.

Farrell has played 341 MLS matches (328 starts) with the Revs since 2013, recording two goals and 12 assists.

“We are delighted to see Andrew Farrell continue his storied career as one of the most dependable and revered players in Revolution history, while also helping aid his transition into a future role in coaching, for which he is perfectly suited,” sporting director Curt Onalfo said.

“It was important to us that Andrew had the opportunity to continue on for another season with his first and only pro club, and that he knew he always has a place in our organization moving forward. We are all excited for Andrew continue to make a positive impact on the first team, while also imparting his many years of wisdom on our club’s youth.”

Farrell appeared in just 14 matches (six starts) in 2024, a career low. He was named the club’s Humanitarian of the Year for the second straight season and third time overall.

“First and foremost, thank you to all the Revolution fans for their support these last 12 seasons. They have made me fall in love with New England, and I wouldn’t want to continue my career anywhere else,” Farrell said. “I am excited to play another season for this club and eager to begin this transition into coaching. I look forward to working with the talented young players in our academy alongside the rest of the excellent staff.”
