Los Angeles is among the most fertile ground for talent in the country. They're quite young and not ready for regular roles, but could be one day soon if some promising performances are any indication. LAFC slow-played their academy to get it right and now they're starting to trickle into the first team. It's also worth mentioning the club's first three academy graduates were signed to the first team during the summer. It was a bit of a boom-or-bust window in that regard for LAFC, who are once again entering the playoffs among the Western Conference heavyweights. Murillo settled in immediately and is forming a strong partnership alongside fellow Colombian center back Eddie Segura. Murillo was LAFC's key addition for the window, filling their most pressing need heading toward the playoffs. It looks like Jesus Murillo is the long-term Walker Zimmerman replacement, and LAFC are picking up form now that he (not to mention another fairly-important player named Carlos Vela) is in the lineup. Immediately after he left, fellow homegrown right back Bryan Reynolds signed a new contract and positioned himself as one of the league's brightest young talents.įranco Jara joined this summer, too, but the DP forward's deal was agreed back in the winter. They retain a big sell-on percentage of the US men's national team defender's rights, and his future likely lies with Ligue 1 club Lille. Perhaps their biggest move was transferring homegrown right back Reggie Cannon to Boavista in a layered, strong deal for Dallas. Phelipe is yet to make his MLS debut, but his international pedigree is promising, having just been called to Brazil's Under-23 national team. It'd be a surprise if he doesn't find form again, though. Ricaurte got off to a great start in Dallas, his quality evident from the minute he stepped on the field, but he hasn't had a goal contribution in his last nine starts. 10 Andres Ricaurte and Brazilian youth international goalkeeper Phelipe. Seemingly out of nowhere, FC Dallas made a few intriguing signings in Colombian No.
