Professional career

Scally signed his first professional contract with New York City on March 21, 2018,[2] and in doing so became the second youngest professional soccer player in the United States, after Freddy Adu.[3] Scally made his professional debut for New York City in a 4-0 U.S. Open Cup loss to New York Red Bulls on June 6, 2018, coming on as a late substitute.[4]

On November 13, 2019, it was announced that Scally would join German Bundesliga side Borussia Mönchengladbach at the end of the 2020 MLS season. The transfer fee was reported to be a seven-figure sum that could rise to become one of the highest transfer fees received for a MLS player.[1]
