Shannon Gomez

Option declined following 2017 season.

A quick youngster capable of playing as a right back or on the wing, Gomez joined NYCFC for their final preseason camp of 2016 and impressed enough to earn a contract. It's unlikely he'll make too much of an impact in the early going, but the Trinidad and Tobago international is an intriguing prospect for the future.

INTERNATIONAL: Has two career caps with the Trinidad and Tobago national team, both coming in 2015. An experienced T&T youth international, Gomez played all five games for the country at the 2015 CONCACAF U-20 championships. 

OUTSIDE MLS: Played every minute of W Connection’s four-game run in the 2015-16 CONCACAF Champions League, which included a 2-1 win over Costa Rican giants Saprissa.
