Major League Soccer has released its annual 22 Under 22 list, a ranking of the top young players in the league. And sure enough, New York City FC have some skin in the game.
NYCFC’s first-ever Young DP Jesus Medina and Manchester City loan Yangel Herrera both made the the top-10 of the list, ranking at 8th and 4th place respectively.
Though not without his criticisms, Medina has performed well in his first season in the Bronx and has amassed 6 goals and 4 assists in 19 total appearances. Herrera, on the other hand, has been out of the squad since sustaining a brutal ankle injury against the Houston Dynamo back in May.
