2025 Fantasy Outlook
Rosales carved out a starting spot in the 2024 season after only holding rotational status in 2023, earning the start in 26 of his 30 regular-season appearances. The 24-year-old set a precedent with his solid two-way play on the left wing. He managed 37 shots, 60 chances created and 191 crosses in the attack, hitting seven or more crosses in a match on 16 different occasions thanks to his role on set pieces. Whether at left-back or on the left flank, Rosales holds fantasy value because of set pieces, something that should result in similar assist numbers in 2025.
Traded to Austin
Rosales was traded from Minnesota to Austin and signed a three-and-a-half-year contract, guaranteed through June 2029 with an option for the 2029-30 season, his new club announced.
ANALYSIS
Rosales spent the last four seasons with the Loons, making 128 appearances across all competitions with five goals and 18 assists while playing as a left back, wide midfielder, and box-to-box midfielder.
