Market23 Nov 2026

D.J. Taylor is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Minnesota United FC is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Minnesota United FC

Drake Callender was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Devin Padelford gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A fracture rules Joaquín Pereyra out for 27 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Minnesota United FC will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Wil Trapp says Minnesota United FC went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Market2 Nov 2026

Peter Stroud has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Minnesota United FC they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

A fracture rules Joaquín Pereyra out for 84 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Minnesota United FC will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Match12 Sep 2026

4 matches without a win for Minnesota United FC

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Minnesota United FC are no longer polite ones.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Nicolás Romero falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Owen Gene pulls a muscle — 14 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 14 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Nobody could get near Marcus Caldeira

Successful dribbles: 17. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad14 Sep 2026

When it matters, Drake Callender plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Match12 Sep 2026

No goals between Minnesota United FC and San Diego Football Club

Ninety minutes, two goalkeepers with clean gloves, and not one finish worth keeping. San Diego Football Club will be the happier side with the point.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Kyle Duncan was immovable

11 times he got in the way of something. Centre-halves get written about when they make mistakes and ignored when they do not, so an afternoon like this needs saying out loud: he is the reason the scoreline reads as it does.

Market14 Sep 2026

Still no ink between Minnesota United FC and Peter Stroud

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Minnesota United FC, another week without a signature from Peter Stroud.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Joaquín Pereyra breaks a bone — 101 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 101 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

D.J. Taylor has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Minnesota United FC they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Nobody could get near James Rodríguez

Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match29 Aug 2026

A bad afternoon for Minnesota United FC against San Jose Earthquakes

1‑2 to San Jose Earthquakes, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad31 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Drake Callender

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Drake Callender, and the manager let it.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

The afternoon belonged to Kelvin Yeboah

7.67, and no serious argument from anybody who was there. Minnesota United FC had eleven men on the pitch and one of them decided how it went.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

One moment undoes Tomás Chancalay

There was one mistake and it ended in the net. Defenders are judged on the worst thing they did rather than on the eighty-nine minutes either side of it, which is unfair and is also the job.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Minnesota United FC pick somebody else ahead of Marcus Caldeira

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Mamadou Dieng breaks a bone — 45 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 45 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market3 Aug 2026

Basel come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Minnesota United FC did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad3 Aug 2026

James Rodríguez stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” James Rodríguez and Minnesota United FC agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Drake Callender in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Minnesota United FC this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market3 Aug 2026

Minnesota United FC may not be able to give Tomás Chancalay what he wants

It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Tomás Chancalay wants continental football; whether Minnesota United FC can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Words at Minnesota United FC training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. James Rodríguez is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Nobody could get near James Rodríguez

Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

A defender's afternoon for Nicolás Romero

Defensive actions: 17. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Market3 Aug 2026

The clock runs on Drake Callender's contract

49 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.
