2025 Fantasy Outlook
Rusnak finally delivered the sensational season everyone had been waiting for in his third year with Seattle. Repositioned as a playmaker and true No. 10, Rusnak thrived in 2024, making 35 appearances (playoffs included) and contributing 10 goals and 12 assists. He was a constant offensive threat, taking 60 shots, creating 84 chances and delivering 166 crosses. His precision on set pieces was unmatched, as he took a career-high 142 corners. Rusnak's ability to control the tempo, unlock defenses and lead the attack made him an invaluable asset. Heading into 2025, he will remain the creative engine for Seattle, looking to build on this breakout campaign and elevating the team further.
Close to return
Rusnak (hamstring) participated in training warmups on Tuesday and is close to returning, coach Brian Schmetzer said to the media, according to Jackson Felts from 93.3 KJR radio. "They participated in warm ups today, so they're getting closer."
ANALYSIS
Rusnak suffered a hamstring injury during the Leagues Cup game against Tijuana and is now close to making his return after participating in training warmups on Tuesday. This is good news for the Sounders as it suggests he could be back after the international break for the next game against LA Galaxy on Sept. 13. That said, if he has to miss more time, Danny Leyva or Jesus Ferreira could continue seeing increased playing time.
