LA Galaxy Strengthens Attack with Signing of Miguel Berry

The LA Galaxy has made a significant addition to their squad by signing forward Miguel Berry for the upcoming seasons.

Berry, aged 26, has been acquired by the LA Galaxy through a trade with Atlanta United, in exchange for LA’s natural second-round pick in the 2024 MLS SuperDraft. The contract signed by Berry extends through the 2025 MLS season, with a club option for 2026. This move comes after Berry’s stint at Atlanta United in 2023, where he made 27 appearances, including 10 starts, scoring one goal and assisting another.

Over his four-season career in the MLS, Berry has played for Columbus Crew, D.C. United, and Atlanta United, recording 11 goals and three assists in 75 regular-season matches. He started 40 of these games, showcasing his potential as a reliable forward in the league. Berry’s best performance came in his rookie season with Columbus in 2021, where he scored eight goals and provided two assists in 18 matches.

The addition of Berry to LA Galaxy’s roster is seen as a strategic move to strengthen their attacking options. This is particularly pertinent following the trade of Preston Judd to the San Jose Earthquakes. Berry will be expected to add depth and versatility to the Galaxy’s frontline, alongside Serbian international and U22 Initiative signing Dejan Joveljić.

LA Galaxy’s General Manager Will Kuntz expressed excitement about working with Berry and adding his attacking experience to the team’s roster. This acquisition reflects LA Galaxy’s continued efforts to bolster their squad as they aim for a return to the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs in 2024. Last season, the team finished 13th in the Western Conference, which was a disappointing outcome hamstrung by injuries.

Berry’s move to LA Galaxy adds an interesting dynamic to the team’s attack, raising expectations for the upcoming season. The Galaxy’s fans and management will be eagerly awaiting to see how Berry’s integration into the team impacts their performance in the MLS.
