Luis Muriel
35-Year-Old
Free Agent
2025 Fantasy Outlook
When Muriel made the switch from Serie A to MLS, many touted him as immediately being one of the best strikers in the league. That certainly didn't play out as he was held to just five goals. He did add seven assists but in the back half of the season he was relegated to the bench, making just 14 starts all year. Duncan McGuire will be sidelined early in the 2025 season, which could perhaps give Muriel his best shot to try and take the starting striker job from Ramiro Enrique and maybe find a spark or two.
Heading to Junior FC
Muriel has joined Colombian squad Junior Barranquilla following a move from MLS club Orlando City.
ANALYSIS
Muriel will be back in his country after a great career in Europe and MLS. After a productive five-year spell in Italy with Atalanta, the forward served for Orlando over the last two seasons, in which he totaled 14 goals and 10 assists in 72 appearances while averaging 1.9 shots (0.7 on target) and 1.2 chances created per game. His departure leaves Martin Ojeda and Duncan McGuire as the team's top attacking options.

ANALYSIS
Muriel hasn't had a good season with La Dea and all signs point to him departing the club in the coming weeks, especially since he only has one goal and two assists in nine appearances this season. If he does leave the club, then expect Fiorentina to chase him.
