Article goes on to praise him with multiple quotes from Reyna and a rather generic quote from Vieira.
Meh, not sure an extension was necessary when he was already under contract. I'm sure he got a little bump from his $90k salary. For the record, I'm 99% sure he would be eligible for free agency as soon as his contract expires. Free agency rules cap a player at a 15% increase in salary, so I'm willing to say that anything over $103,500 for a Saunders extension would be a bad business move.
New York City FC is pleased to announce that goalkeeper Josh Saunders has signed a new multi-year contract extension. Saunders started 33 games for the Club this season and recorded four clean sheets in New York City’s inaugural campaign. Per Club and League policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
