2025 Fantasy Outlook
Arriola had yet another disappointing season during 2024 despite featuring in 31 matches, compiling five goals and two assists, a far cry from the 10 goals and five assists compiled in 2022. However, a change of scenery may help rejuvenate his career, as he is joining former Dallas teammate Jesus Ferreira in Seattle. He should see a spot in the starting XI with his new team immediately, likely replacing the spot Leo Chu once held after his move to Dallas in the Ferriera trade. That said, Arriola is likely to see plenty of opportunities, leaving it upon himself to convert and make the best of this move, as he will be joined by plenty of solid talent along with fellow veterans of the game while on the field with his new team.
Dealing with adductor concern
Arriola could miss upcoming action due to an adductor muscle problem, the MLS reported Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Arriola is a doubt heading into the World Cup break, with the severity of his issue still unknown. He made his third start of the season and played 61 minutes during the last league match on May 17, and his potential absence would force the team to a change on the left wing. In that case, Paul Rothrock will likely bounce back to a major role.
