Position: Left-Winger
Age: 20
Key Stat: 5.84 touches in the attacking penalty area per 90 minutes, ranking in the 92nd percentile among MLS wingers/attacking midfielders.
Agustín Ojeda played only limited minutes in his first season with New York City FC, with three goals scored across 25 appearances not the best return on the $5.5 million transfer fee required to sign him from Racing Club in February 2024.
A certain amount of hype accompanied his arrival given the praise the 20-year-old Argentine received coming through Racing Club's youth academy and while breaking through with their senior squad.
The signs of that potential were there during Ojeda's first season in MLS, but he faded from consistent involvement in Nick Cushing's team once Leagues Cup arrived in 2024.
He ended the season a scarcely-used substitute, but in 2025 Ojeda, much like his Argentine countryman and fellow wide attacker Julián Fernández, will be hoping a fresh start under new coach Pascal Jansen translates to a bigger role and a bigger individual season.
