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.
Back with team
Painstill is back in LA and is an option moving forward, according to the MLS injury report.
ANALYSIS
Painstill is no longer on international duty and is back in LA to make him an option moving forward. He will now look to return to his starting spot, starting in 17 of his 20 appearances this season, while bagging five goals and one assist this season.
