Youth and college

A native of Park Ridge, New Jersey, Turner attended Saint Joseph Regional High School.[5] Turner didn't play soccer until he was 14 years old, initially taking up the sport to stay in shape for his primary sports of basketball and baseball. He started playing in goal when the only other goalkeeper for his freshman team was injured at tryouts.[6]

Turner spent his entire collegiate career at Fairfield University. He made a total of 39 appearances for the Stags and finished with 21 clean sheets. He was named to the All-Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference second team during his senior season.[7]

He also played in the Premier Development League for Jersey Express, leading the team to the PDL national semifinals in 2014.[بحاجة لمصدر]


Club career

New England Revolution

Turner was not selected in the 2016 MLS SuperDraft, but he signed a professional contract with Major League Soccer (MLS) club New England Revolution on March 3, 2016, after a successful preseason trial.[7][8] On April 29, he joined United Soccer League club Richmond Kickers on loan and made his professional debut a day later in a 1–0 victory over Toronto FC II.[9] During his two loan stints with the Kickers, Turner would record 7 shutouts in 27 starts.[10]

2018 season

Turner earned the starting job for the Revolution entering the 2018 season, beating out Brad Knighton and Cody Cropper for the job.[بحاجة لمصدر] He made his MLS debut on March 3, 2018, in the Revolution's season opener against Philadelphia Union, making four saves in a 2–0 loss.[11] Turner started all four of New England's matches to open the season, recording a 1.25 goals against average and 16 saves throughout that period. On March 31, 2018, he made six saves and recorded his first MLS clean sheet in the club's 2–0 win at BBVA Compass Stadium against Houston Dynamo FC. It was the first clean sheet a Revolution keeper had recorded since August 24, 2016. He would record four more clean sheets over the 2018 season.[12][13]

2019 season

After a difficult start to the 2019 season which saw Turner drop to third string behind Cropper and Knighton, he would re-emerge as the starter for the club, ultimately starting 20 matches and recording five clean sheets.[14] Turner would lead the Revolution to its first playoff match since 2015. It was also Turner's first playoff match. He would start in the Revolution's 1–0 away loss to Atlanta United FC in the first round of the 2019 MLS Cup Playoffs.[15] Turner would finish as an MLS goalkeeper of the year finalist, ranking 5th in voting behind winner Vito Mannone, D.C. United's Bill Hamid, New York City FC's Sean Johnson, and Atlanta's Brad Guzan.[16]

2020 season

Turner had a stand-out season in 2020 and was subsequently named as a finalist for the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Award. Over the course of the season, Turner started 22 of the team's 23 matches, recording an 8–7–8 record, setting a new club record for goals against per game (1.08), recording six shut-outs, and leading his team to a second consecutive trip to the MLS Cup Playoffs. At the conclusion of the season, Turner ranked second in Revs history in saves percentage and goals against average (1.36). He additionally finished as the leader ranked among the top-10 MLS goalkeepers in saves percentage, goals against average, and saves. His save percentage was the highest of any MLS keeper since the start of the 2019 season.[17] He would ultimately finish the season second in voting for the MLS goalkeeper of the year, behind Andre Blake.[18]

In round one of the 2020 MLS Cup Playoffs, Turner would record a clean sheet against the Supporters' Shield-holding Philadelphia Union in the Revolution's 2–0 win.[19] Turner would then save a Nani penalty kick in the Revolution's Eastern Conference semifinal 3–1 victory over Orlando City SC.[20]

In 2020, New England Revolution fans voted Turner the Revolution team MVP, his teammates voted him the Revolution Player of the Year,[21] and Revolution supporters group the Midnight Riders voted him the Midnight Riders Man of the Year.[22]

2021 season

Turner continued to play well over the course of the 2021 season, recording a 1.25 goals-against average, a 73.2 save percentage, and five shutouts over 28 starts. On November 22, 2021, he was named the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year. He was the first keeper in Revolution history to earn the honor. During the 2021 season, Turner was named 2021 MLS All-Star Game MVP after making two penalty saves against the Liga MX All stars on August 25, 2021. He also set a club record with 17 regular season wins, which was tied for the most in the league.[23]

Arsenal

On February 11, 2022, it was announced that Turner and Premier League club Arsenal had agreed to a deal that would see him move to the London club in the summer of 2022. He will be Arsenal's first summer signing of the window.[24][25] Arsenal reportedly paid a transfer fee of $6 million that could potentially rise to $10 million.[26] On June 27, 2022, Arsenal announced Turner as the new player on a long-term contract. Turner was given the number 30 shirt.[4]

Turner started Arsenal's July 8, 2022, friendly at 1. FC Nürnberg. Arsenal would go on to win the match 5–3.[27] On September 8, 2022, Turner started against FC Zürich during the 2022–23 UEFA Europa League group stage, which Arsenal went on to win 2–1.[28] On October 6, Turner would record his first clean sheet for the club in a 3–0 win against Bodø/Glimt at the Emirates in the subsequent Europa League fixture.[29][30]

Following this, Turner would go on to record back-to-back clean sheets in further Europa League wins against Bodø/Glimt again and PSV Eindhoven.[31][32] The former of the two performances, a 1–0 away win at the Aspmyra Stadion on October 13, drew praise from his manager Mikel Arteta.[33]

International career

Turner made his international debut on January 31, 2021, for the United States men's national team, starting in goal against Trinidad and Tobago in a friendly match.[34] Turner recorded a clean sheet, saving a penalty kick from Alvin Jones.

Turner started in all six games for the United States in the 2021 CONCACAF Gold Cup. He recorded five clean sheets, including one in a 1–0 win against Mexico in the final. For his performance, Turner was awarded “Best Goalkeeper” of the tournament.

Personal life

Turner and his father both obtained Lithuanian passports in 2020; Turner's paternal great-grandmother fled from religious persecution during World War II, and emigrated from Lithuania.[35][36] His father's family is Jewish and their surname was Anglicized from Turnovski to Turner at immigration,[36][35] whereas his mother's family is Catholic.[35][36]

He married his wife, Ashley Herron, in 2022.[6] Their son, Easton, was born on June 29, 2022.[37]
