Minnesota United FC 2023 Season Preview

2023 Schedule

Strength: Some offseason signings combined with a return to health by Hassani Dotson means they’ve got a ton of depth basically everywhere. Except for the No. 10.
Weakness: Their No. 10, around whom the entire thing is built, is currently in Argentina and being fined for not showing up to preseason. Uh oh.

Romain Métanire: Injuries halted the progress of MLS All-Star defender Romain Métanire, limiting the right back to just 22 minutes played in 2022. The Madagascar international spent four seasons with the Loons.
Tyler Miller: Tyler Miller was signed to be Minnesota's starting goalkeeper, but an absence opened the door for Canadian international Dayne St. Clair to take the job. Miller signed with D.C. United as a free agent, where he’s the presumed starter.

Miguel Tapias: Minnesota added to their center back corps via Mexico native Miguel Tapias, signed from reigning Liga MX champions Pachuca. He made more than 70 appearances in four seasons with Pachuca.
Mikael Marques: Another center back, 21-year-old Mikael Marques was signed from AFC Eskilstuna (Swedish second division). He provides further options at the position as Bakaye Dibassy recovers from injury.
