  "textContent": "On Friday, Major League Soccer published the full list of current General Allocation Money (GAM) available to all clubs as of February 20, 2026.\n\nThis snapshot is taken after roster compliance, meaning that the listed totals are what is available _after_ applying GAM to their roster to buy down players to fit under the salary cap.\n\nThis list does not include transactions made after the February 20th deadline, meaning that moves like Toronto FC sending $250,000 in 2026 GAM (and up to $725,000 in total) to St. Louis City SC for **Josh Sargent** 's rights are not included.\n\n## Available 2026 General Allocation Money (GAM) per club\n\n| Club| 2026 GAM\n---|---|---\n1| Sporting KC| $6,380,121\n2| Colorado Rapids| $5,007,225\n3| Portland Timbers| $4,788,001\n4| San Jose Earthquakes| $4,725,751\n5| Real Salt Lake| $4,435,148\n6| Philadelphia Union| $4,393,417\n7| San Diego FC| $4,211,327\n8| Minnesota United| $4,157,930\n9| CF Montréal| $3,247,472\n10| Toronto FC| $3,078,603\n11| New York City FC| $2,637,519\n12| Houston Dynamo| $2,310,805\n13| St. Louis City| $2,227,157\n14| DC United| $2,137,599\n15| Nashville SC| $1,581,229\n16| FC Dallas| $1,576,731\n17| New England Revolution| $1,162,968\n18| Chicago Fire| $1,003,353\n19| Columbus Crew| $952,447\n20| Orlando City| $655,360\n21| Austin FC| $412,817\n22| FC Cincinnati| $361,337\n23| Atlanta United| $344,356\n24| Los Angeles FC| $249,749\n25| Seattle Sounders| $243,090\n26| Red Bull New York| $189,830\n27| Charlotte FC| $75,994\n28| Vancouver Whitecaps| $20,945\n29| Inter Miami| $17,361\n30| LA Galaxy| $0\n\n## What does this mean for Nashville SC?\n\nNashville SC have the 15th-most available GAM in MLS at the moment, with a total of $1,581,229. It's important to remember that this is _after_ GAM has been applied to the roster. In the January update, Nashville had the 23rd-most GAM in MLS, with $3,901,404 _before_ getting their roster compliant.\n\nNashville SC transfer winger Jonathan Pérez to Mexican powerhouse Chivas23-year-old winger leaves Nashville for a club-record $3 million transfer feeSixOneFive SoccerBen Wright\n\nNashville added significant spending room with the sale of winger **Jonathan Pérez** to Chivas for a club-record $3 million. Per MLS rules, 95% of the transfer fee of U22 Initiative Players can be converted to GAM _after_ recouping acquisition costs. Factoring in the LA Galaxy's sell-on percentage (estimated at 20%), this move could have added a maximum of around $855,000 in GAM to their books.\n\nNashville filled Pérez's U22 Initiative slot with **Reed Baker-Whiting**, who joined from the Seattle Sounders for up to $1.1 million. That move, though, was a cash transfer, meaning that no GAM was involved and Nashville were able to leave the money from the Pérez sale untouched.\n\nEspecially with last season's roster rule changes meaning that GAM no longer expires, Nashville find themselves in good shape with plenty of flexibility left heading into the summer transfer window, which opens on Monday, July 13.",
