What a tremendous season Navarro is having! He is the top finisher for coach Armas in 2024, with 11 goals to his name and it seems there’s nothing stopping the former Palmeiras striker from attacking the Top Goalscorer prize in Major League Soccer this season.
Second player to watch: Cole Bassett
Seeing as Djordje Mihailovic is playing in the Summer Olympics in France, we trust coach Armas will go with Bassett in the attacking midfielder role. Bassett is the 3rd-best finisher for the Rapids, with nine goals scored since the start of the campaign.
