Joseph Paintsil
27-Year-Old
Los Angeles Galaxy
MLS
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Paintsil delivered a strong inaugural MLS season with the LA Galaxy. The Ghanaian international joined the club in February from KFC Genk, producing 14 goals and eight assists from 34 appearances (playoffs included). He should remain a regular starter in 2025, leading attacks down the left flank and continuing LA's successful scoring cohort with Dejan Joveljic and Gabriel Pec. His role will be particularly important in 2025, as Riqui Puig will be out for most of the season with a torn ACL.
Loan goal for Galaxy
Paintsil scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 3-1 loss versus Inter Miami CF.
ANALYSIS
Paintsil logged in the only goal for the team Saturday for just his fifth of the season. All five of those goals have come since June, following a difficult start to the season due to injury.
