The 2024 MLS season is over. While we wait for the start of a new campaign, it’s time to look at the previous one’s biggest stars.
Who did you have in your fantasy soccer team most often? And who deserves to be there in 2025?
Today, I am delving into the stats of the MLS fantasy soccer players. Based on FootballCoin points, here are the best for the 2025 season.
The 2024 MLS Fantasy Football Dream Team
Brad Stuver (Austin FC) – 643 points in FootballCoin
Riqui Puig (LA Galaxy) – 643 points
Riqui Puig was once a wonderkid playing in La Liga. It’s good to see him reaching, at least, part of his wonderful potential. Puig was a real leader for LA Galaxy and a midfield maestro. No other player made more progressive passes and passes into the final third. Puig was one of the best MLS fantasy soccer choices for the 2024 season.
Evander – (Portland Timbers) – 645 points
Numerous teams have fought to sign Evander in the past, not least of all from Europe’s top leagues. In the meantime, the Brazilian has become Portland Timbers’ most important player. Registering the best xAG/90 minutes in the MLS, Evander is a player who can create great goalscoring opportunities for his teammates.
John McCarthy (LA Galaxy) – 663 points
Santiago Rodriguez (New York City FC) – 668 points
Kristijan Kahlina (Charlotte FC) – 682 points
I wrote about Croatia’s Kristijan Kahlina often last season. Indeed, when looking at the stats, the Charlotte FC shot-stopper was the best goalkeeper in the MLS. The goalie had the most clean sheets in the league, 12. And, I reckon that the Croatian national team should consider a call-up for the future in spite of the distance.
Luciano Acosta (FC Cincinnati) – 689 points
Mateusz Bogusz (Los Angeles FC) – 689 points
Mateusz Bogusz shone in a Los Angeles FC team which has plenty of stars and which dominated the regular season. The 22-year-old Polish player was marvellously consistent. Playing 32 games across the season, Bogusz managed 15 goals and 6 assists. If he stays put for the next season, he’ll be one of the Los Angeles team’s most important players in 2025.
Gabriel Pec (LA Galaxy) – 747 points
Garbirle Pec has brought more than a little bit of the South American flair that fans of the MLS like so much to witness. The former Vasco da Gama player is not only quick and skilful. But Pec has proven that he can lead LA Galaxy’s attack through a campaign. Pec scored 19 goals and provided 15 assists throughout the campaign, making him one of the best MLS fantasy soccer choices this year.
Denis Bouanga (Los Angeles FC) – 767 points in FootballCoin
Denis Bouanga, the Gabonese journeyman striker, has finally found a home for himself in Los Angeles. This season he managed a whopping 21 goals and 9 assists. This means that, at this stage, he’s netted 41 times in just 70 games played for the club. Bouanga is the top MLS fantasy soccer player and someone you will definitely need to have on your team for the 2025 campaign.
