Player to Watch
Luis Muriel (Orlando City)
Luis Muriel is one of the world’s finest forwards, evident by his goal-scoring record and prowess in front of goal. He is yet to be prolific for his new team after moving in from the Italian side of Atalanta. He has scored two goals in 15 matches which is a poor return for an elite striker of his calibre.
Nevertheless, it takes time to adjust to new surroundings. Hopefully, he starts firing for his new team as they need him the most after missing a handful of players for their national teams.
Denis Bouanga (LAFC)
Denis Bouanga is an experienced forward who has made waves in the MLS since signing from French outfit Saint-Etienne. He had an incredible season last year and has continues to lead his team to a strong position this season. Bouanga has appeared 18 times for LAFC this season scoring 10 goals.
He also has seven assists to his name after providing a couple of assists for the team. Bouanga is back after representing Gabon in 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier fixtures.
