153 matches. On May 10, 2026, Eddie Segura passed Carlos Vela's 152 matches with this number. It was the moment the LAFC regular-season most-appearances record changed hands. Five months later, the club signed him to a long-term contract.

Per the LAFC official announcement,the confirmed term runs through the 2029-30 season. The 2030-31 season is an option the club decides whether to exercise. So the phrasing 'confirmed through 2031' is inaccurate. It should be described as the maximum term if the option is exercised. The announcement date is the 12th local time. Some domestic reports listed it as the 13th KST.

According to statements from the pre-Austin press conference reported by InterFootball at 4:30 p.m. on the 14th, Segura was reportedly satisfied with the renewal and expressed a sense of belonging to the club. The exact time the press conference was held has not been confirmed. The new contract's salary, total value, and signing bonus were not disclosed in the club's official announcement.

Coverage	Matches	Starts	Goals	Assists	Source / date
LAFC all competitions	216	179	5	8	Club announcement, 2026.10.12

At the time of the regular-season most-appearances record	153	-	-	-	Club, 2026.05.10

The two match counts differ because the coverage is different. The 168 matches come from the MLS report, which gives the regular-season career total. Regular-season appearances are up 15 from 153 on May 10. Of the 216 matches in all competitions, 179 were starts, or 82.9%.

Segura salary $722,500 — up 25.1% in one year

Per the MLS Players Association (MLSPA) 2026 spring salary guide,Segura's base salary and annual guaranteed compensation are both $722,500 (as of 2026.04.14). That is $145,000 more than the $577,500 listed in the fall 2025 release. Relative to $577,500, that works out to a 25.1% increase.

13	Eddie Segura	722,500
13	Jeremy Ebobisse	722,500
15	Igor Jesus Lima	691,684

Filtering the MLSPA data for LAFC players and ranking them by guaranteed compensation places Segura tied for 13th with Ebobisse. Because the new contract terms have not been disclosed, his team ranking after the renewal has not been confirmed.

LAFC vs. Austin — first opponent of the 5 remaining regular-season matches

According to InterFootball, Segura said at the pre-match press conference ahead of the Austin game on the 14th: "I will give everything for the team in the remaining 5 matches." The 5 matches refer to the remaining regular-season schedule.

Segura reportedly said the team should reduce detailed mistakes and pull together. The first opponent is Austin FC. Per the Austin FC available-players report, kickoff is at 11:30 a.m. KST on the 15th. The venue is BMO Stadium (as of 20:00 on 2026.10.14, before the match started).
