Yohei Takaoka
29-Year-Old
Vancouver Whitecaps FC
MLS
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Takaoka is heading into his third season with Vancouver, and he's coming off two nearly identical seasons. He's started 35 and 37 matches, conceded 51 and 50 goals, and made 103 and 99 saves in his first two seasons, respectively in 2023 and 2024. Takaoka has never been the problem for Vancouver, but he hasn't been the goalkeeper who can steal a game and get them over the hump in the MLS Cup playoffs. The playing style of Vancouver's new coach could change Takaoka's situation, with a defensively-minded coach potentially giving him the chance to reach double-digit clean sheets for the first time in MLS.
Only gives up one goal
Takaoka made two saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 4-1 victory against San Jose Earthquakes.
ANALYSIS
Takaoka didn't make too many saves but only allowed one goal, which was good enough with Vancouver scoring four. He's going to need to do more next Saturday against Orlando City SC, a side which has scored 60 times in 32 MLS games.
