Player to watch: Cengiz Under
Turkish winger Cengiz Under is a new addition to the LAFC family. Although loaned out from Turkish giants Fenerbahce, Under is doing his best to impress coach Steven Cherundolo. The fee which LAFC had to pay was a whopping €1.2m, but the 27-year-old player already scored his debut goal for the team.

Second player to watch: David Martinez
It seems that with two goals under his belt, David Martinez is on fire for LAFC! There’s a very high chance that the winger will be among the starters for his club.
