Est. Return 9/9/2026
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ku-DiPietro is coming off a decent season with D.C., one where he recorded six goal contributions across 29 appearances (24 starts) and 1,877 minutes. It was a slightly disappointing return considering he had seven goal contributions in 1,162 minutes during the 2023 campaign. He was played all over the pitch in 2024 as he played right, left and center midfield, as well as turns in attacking midfield and on the forward line. He never went more than two consecutive matches occupying the same position, so his lack of a solidified role could have resulted in his more disappointing campaign. However, four of his six goal contributions came during his 13 matches in either central midfield or a central attacking position, so he could improve his numbers next season if he finds a consistent place in the center of the pitch.
Facing long recovery after surgery
Ku-DiPietro (shoulder) has undergone a medical procedure and is expected to be assessed again in five months, the team reported Friday.
ANALYSIS
Ku-DiPietro will now be forced to spend at least a few months in his rehabilitation process from the issue that has sidelined him since early April. He was used exclusively as a substitute over the first five weeks of the season, failing to score or assist while recording limited involvement around the field. Both Darren Yapi and Dante Sealy might stay active on the wings for the duration of the injured player's absence.
