So far in 2025, Glasgow has participated in all four of Chicago’s MLS regular season matches, entering as a substitute against Columbus and D.C. United before earning his first start in the 3-1 win against FC Dallas on March 8 at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas. He also entered the match against Toronto FC in the 62nd minute to help the team earn back-to-back come-from-behind wins on the road for the first time since 2012.

Glasgow, 21, is the leading goal scorer for Guyana after scoring 20 goals in 29 caps. The winger has participated in CONCACAF Nations League A and B, Gold Cup qualifying and FIFA World Cup qualifying for Guyana, as well as in several international friendlies.
