Rafael Navarro
25-Year-Old
Colorado Rapids
MLS
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Colorado officially acquired Navarro from Palmeiras after he joined the Rapids on a loan-to-buy option for 2023. This past season, Navarro signed a long-term deal through 2027 with a team option for 2028. While Navarro had a great season contributing 15 goals, he went cold down the stretch, scoring in just one of the last eight matches. This was a vast improvement from his 10-match sample size in 2023, with only one goal. Navarro should be in line for a similar scoring output in his second full season in MLS, with 20-goal upside.
Takes five shots in draw
Navarro had five off-target shots, created one chance and suffered three fouls during Saturday's 2-2 draw against LAFC.
ANALYSIS
Navarro was very active up front but lacked accuracy in front of the net, something that was very common during the final stretch of the campaign as he had no goals and just three of his 13 shots over the last five starts finding the target. With 12 goals and three assists over 31 appearances this year, the striker had some very nice stretches but it still looks like he needs an extra development step to become one of MLS' high-end players at his position.
