Luis Barraza isn't as good as you think

There is well-deserved concern surrounding New York City FC as they trudge their way toward a club-record winless streak. This newfound level of incompetence has made many, including myself, come to the realization that the striker position isn’t the only one that needs fixing.

Luis Barraza hasn’t inspired much hope this season. Outside of his great performance in Salt Lake City, the No 1 continues to underwhelm. As much as I want to ease some of the worries I have for this team, I simply can’t. And that’s why I’m here to tell you that Barraza is even worse than you think.

The season began brightly for the 20-year-old fullback, but he ended 2025 as an unused substitute in 13 of New York City FC's final 20 matches. Will he fight for more minutes in 2026, or is a transfer away up next for Ilenič?
