Nashville SC have signed midfielder Ethan O'Brien to a short-term loan from Huntsville City FC ahead of Saturday's match against Houston Dynamo.
O'Brien, 24, made his Nashville debut earlier this season, coming off the bench in a 3-2 win over Orlando City in the US Open Cup. The midfielder has been a standout with Huntsville City in MLS NEXT Pro this season, logging two goals and two assists in 24 appearances.

This is O'Brien's second short-term callup from Huntsville City FC this season. Per MLS rules, players can be signed to a maximum of four short-term loans per season before requiring an MLS contract.
