Nets brace Saturday
Joveljic scored two goals from two shots during Saturday's 2-2 draw with Chicago.
Analysis: Joveljic found the back of the net in the 12th and 48th minutes scoring both Seattle goals during the draw. The goals were the first since July 23rd for the forward as he's combined for eight shots, a chance created and a cross over his last three starts.
Joins Seattle via trade
Joveljic has completed a move to Seattle from Sporting KC on Tuesday in a cash-for-player trade. Sporting KC have received $6 million as part of the deal, and the deal also includes an option for the 2030/31 MLS season.
Analysis: Joveljic spent one-and-a-half seasons with Sporting KC, tallying 26 goals and three assists over 52 league appearances for the club. He should provide Seattle with a reliable scoring threat, and the team can start building their attack around him, as the deal will keep Joveljic as a Sounder until 2030 at the earliest. Joveljic's 39 goals in MLS regular-season and postseason play between 2024 and 2025 ranked third league-wide, behind only Inter Miami's Lionel Messi and LAFC's Denis Bouanga.
