After returning from an ACL injury he sustained at the end of the 2023 season, Maxi Moralez proved to be an integral piece of Nick Cushing's setup in 2024.

In 26 appearances across all competitions, Moralez managed two goals and seven assists as the club's go-to No 10. And, for a 37-year-old attacking midfielder, the diminutive Argentine impacted nearly every game he featured in, whether he played the full 90 minutes or made a cameo off the bench.
