Player to Watch: Denis Bouanga, Striker

All eyes will be on LAFC’s newest signing, Heung-Min Son, Saturday night—and rightly so, as the former Tottenham superstar makes his first-ever trip to St. Louis. But the player to watch, as always, is LAFC striker Denis Bouanga.

Fresh off a hat trick against Real Salt Lake, Bouanga just became the first player in MLS history to score 20+ goals in three consecutive seasons. He’s been electric all year, and Son’s arrival has only amplified his impact—Bouanga has racked up 9 goals and 1 assist since the South Korean joined the squad.

With 22 goals in MLS play, Bouanga is currently tied with Lionel Messi atop the Golden Boot race. St. Louis will need a monumental defensive effort to keep him quiet on Saturday.
