Morey Doner is preparing for his first season with Le Rouge. In the offseason, Detroit City signed the defender to a two-year contract that runs through the 2026 season.
Doner has spent the last three seasons with Monterey Bay FC of the USL Championship’s Western Conference, joining the club ahead of their inaugural season in 2022. In his three seasons in Seaside, California, Doner started all 34 league matches in 2022, 2023, and 2024, playing all but 63 available minutes since his arrival.
After an impressive 2022 in Seaside, Monterey Bay signed Doner to a two-year contract extension lasting through the end of the 2024 season. In November 2023 it was announced that Doner had signed another extension through the 2025 season, with an option for a third year in 2026.
As a fullback, Doner has made a name for himself as a box-to-box player, standing tall on defense while also getting involved in the attacking third of the pitch. In three seasons at Monterey Bay, Doner scored four league goals while registering 10 assists.
The Collingwood, Ontario, Canada native spent three seasons playing in the Canadian Premier League prior to joining the USL Championship in 2022. Doner appeared in 52 CPL matches, 32 times for York9 and 20 for HFX Wanderers, playing nearly 5,000 minutes over his three seasons from 2019 to 2021.
