Segbers joins the Flamingos after a successful three year run with USL Championship club, Charleston Battery. The 29 year old\u2019s veteran experience and versatility on the pitch will be a major asset to an FMFC team looking to come back strong in 2026.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMark is a proven winner in professional soccer,\u201d said Forward Madison FC Sporting Director, Matt Cairns. \u201cHis versatility, coachability and overall quality made him a priority signing for our club and I can\u2019t wait to see him representing FMFC in 2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A St. Louis, Missouri-native, Segbers is no stranger to the Midwest. He spent all four years of his college career as a University of Wisconsin Badger, earning All-Big Ten second team honors along the way in 2014 and 2017.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMark is a proven professional in the USL ecosystem with a Madison background who we feel will be a big contributor for us,\u201d said Forward Madison FC Head Coach and Technical Director, Matt Glaeser. \u201cHis resume speaks for itself and we have followed him for years.&nbsp; His dynamism, versatility and overall quality allow him to play in various positions and we are very pleased to add him to the roster.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Segber\u2019s professional career began when he was drafted No. 9 overall in the 2018 SuperDraft and signed with MLS club, New England Revolution, before a season-long loan to USL Championship side, Orange County SC, that same year. Segbers stayed at the Championship level for a stint, playing for Swope Park Rangers in 2019 and Memphis 901 in 2020 before being loaned to MLS club, Los Angeles FC, to finish out 2020. Segbers made the move back to Championship in 2021 when he signed with Miami FC before being loaned to Charleston for his three year run with the Battery. With over 200 appearances and&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>15,000 minutes played in the USL, Forward Madison will look to Segbers for seasoned stability in the midfield in 2026 as he makes his return to his alma mater city.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m extremely excited to come back to the city where I started chasing my dream of playing professional soccer,\u201d Segbers said. \u201cI was blessed to be able to play for the University of Wisconsin where I was lucky enough to work with Keith Tiemeyer and Aaron Hohlbein just down the road, so Madison has always held a special place in my heart. The atmosphere that the fans and community create is second to none, and I can\u2019t wait to be a part of it. I also have a great support system behind me which allows me to perform at my highest level. I\u2019ve been putting in a lot of work and energy into the offseason process and I\u2019m excited to hit the ground running! I couldn\u2019t be happier to be back in Madison and get started!
