Matt Turner of the New England Revolution in the Major League Soccer has signed a long-term contract with Arsenal which he crowned with a photoshoot with his pregnant partner.
Since making his international debut in January 2021, the 28-year-old USA international has played 18 times for his nation. He was a key member of the team that qualified for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, as well as the six games the United States played en route to winning the 2021 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Matt joined Jersey Express in the US Premier Development League following his graduation from Fairfield University in Connecticut, where he spent one season, before signing with the New England Revolution in 2016.
During his six years with the MLS franchise, Matt made 102 appearances for the New England Revolution and was chosen as the league’s Most Valuable Player in 2020 by both the fans and his teammates.
He was chosen to represent the Major League Soccer in the 2021 MLS All-Star Game, where he was awarded MVP and saved two penalties. Prior to joining the New England Revolution, Matt had a productive loan season with the Richmond Kickers in the United Soccer League in 2016.
Mikel Arteta remarked: “Matt is an experienced goalkeeper who will bring high quality to our squad. He has shown with his performances in recent years in both the MLS and at international level with the United States that he is a goalkeeper who will give us added strength going into next season. We welcome Matt and his family to the club and we look forward to working together in the years to come.”
Matt Turner
Matthew Charles Turner, a goalkeeper for the United States national team, was born in the United States on June 24, 1994. He just signed a deal with Premier League Club Arsenal.
Turner and Premier League team Arsenal announced their agreement on February 11, 2022, and it was reported that he will join the London club in the summer of 2022. He is the first summer acquisition for Arsenal.
According to reports, Arsenal paid a transfer fee of $6 million, which might increase to $10 million. Turner was introduced by Arsenal as the new employee with a long-term contract on June 27, 2022. Turner received the shirt with the number 30.
Turner received a Lithuanian passport in 2020 because his ancestry is rooted in the country. During World War II, his great-grandmother left Lithuania for the United States which led to him being born in America.

Matt Turner and Ash Lynne
Matt and Ash have been dating for a while. There hasn’t been any information, though, on when they first met or began dating.
Turner got married to his now-wife Ashly Herron, in a ceremony in Boston. Though no kids yet, the couple is expecting a child because the goalkeeper posed with a pregnant Ash in his photo session after joining Arsenal.
Ash has been a staunch advocate for Matt, showing up to games to cheer on her lover. She is expected to continue that culture in the Premier League next season.
Ash Lynne: Who is she?
The 26-year-old Ash Lynne is the founder of the Miss Pink Organization. She also works as a fitness instructor for companies like Brightfitness and Everyone Fights.
With an MBA, Lynne performs some sort of consultation. She used to cheer for the New England Patriots, a legendary team in American football.
Ash is thought to be worth roughly $500K, which is a respectable amount. We can anticipate the worth to rise eventually because her lover is now a member of one of the Premier League clubs in England.
