Acquired on loan from FC Dallas on August 22, 2025.

Professional Career

2022-2025 / FC Dallas
Scott rose through the ranks in the FC Dallas system after joining the club’s youth academy at just five years old. As he progressed through the academy, Scott helped to win the 2018 Dallas Cup as well as the 2019 Bayern Adidas Campus Cup before earning the 2021 U-17 MLS NEXT Cup Golden Boot award for leading the tournament with four goals. A year later, the Brooklyn-born forward made his professional debut with MLS NEXT Pro side North Texas SC against Minnesota United FC 2 on March 26, 2022, and impressed with a brace. He then went on to record 17 goals and five assists in 41 matches with the second team, helping North Texas SC capture the 2024 MLS NEXT Pro Cup alongside current Monterey Bay FC captain Nico Gordon.

Scott signed his first professional contract with FC Dallas in late 2022, becoming the 34th Homegrown in the club’s history. That summer, he was selected for the Bayern World Squad – an elite global development initiative hosted by FC Bayern Munich. Scott then missed the entire 2023 season with a knee injury, but returned the following year to make his MLS debut on June 29, 2024 against FC Cincinnati before adding another first-team appearance ahead of the All-Star break. That same year, his brother Malik Henry-Scott signed as a homegrown player for the club as well, making them the first brother duo to have Homegrown contracts with FC Dallas.

International Career (Jamaica)

Internationally, Scott received a call-up to the Jamaican U20 Youth National Team for a training camp in Trinidad and Tobago in 2024.
