2022 Recap: After 30 appearances in 2021, Montero returned to the Sounders and showed up 33 times in 2022. Starting off the season right, he contributed three goals during Champions League which tied him for second highest on the team. Two came in a massive 3-0 win against Club León at Lumen Field, and the third was an away goal that catapulted Seattle past their first Mexican opponent on the way to the title. Fredy was a serviceable MLS substitute, who in small doses contributed both as a striker and playmaker (11 key passes on the year), but he missed a few chances we are used to seeing him finish and was used more as a creator than a pure finisher.
