WHAT HAPPENED?

Dutch winger Javairo Dilrosun will reportedly remain with LAFC for an extra day after the MLS club reached an agreement with Club América, allowing him to feature in this Friday’s match against the Portland Timbers. According to Tom Bogert, he will be eligible for the match, but his future is still to be determined with the club.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

According to ESPN, América are looking to sell Dilrosun during the current transfer window to free up a foreign player slot - key to André Jardine’s plans for a new signing in the coming weeks. However, LAFC is also exploring the possibility of keeping the Dutchman on loan for a longer spell.

Dilrosun is under contract with América through December 2026, but the Mexican club is working to terminate the deal early. In seven MLS appearances, he has scored twice, including a crucial goal in the “El Tráfico” derby against the LA Galaxy.

According to other reports, Dilrosun could also be included as part of a potential deal that would bring LAFC star Denis Bouanga to América.

DID YOU KNOW?

In just five MLS appearances, Dilrosun has already scored twice - a notable contrast to his time at Club América, where he managed just three goals across 52 matches. His early form with LAFC has certainly been a bright spot.

WHAT NEXT FOR LOS ANGELES FC?

Steve Cherundolo’s team currently sits fifth in the Western Conference with 36 points. While the futures of Bouanga and Dilrosun are still being decided, both players are expected to feature in Friday’s away match against the Portland Timbers.
