The 2025 edition of MLS NEXT Cup begins this Saturday, with action taking place in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
For the 2010 age group, it marks the first foray into postseason competitive action. A 32-team field will battle it out for the crown, with standout MLS Academies lining up against some of the best non-professional elite academies.
Ahead of Saturday’s opening round of games, here are some of the key players to watch in each position who are expected to play.
