LA GalaxyEarns first MLS start
Furuhashi had three shots (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Houston Dynamo.
Analysis: Furuhashi earned his first start Saturday since joining the Galaxy this summer after making two previous substitute appearances in league play. He arrived from Birmingham City, where he was primarily used off the bench, but he has a chance to carve out a regular role. Through his first three MLS appearances, he has logged 88 minutes while recording six shots and one chance created.
Lively Galaxy Debut
Furuhashi recorded three shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus FC Dallas.
Analysis: Furuhashi made his LA Galaxy debut in Saturday's 0-0 draw with FC Dallas, coming off the bench and registering three shots (one on target) and one cross across his 23 minutes as his side pushed for a winner in the closing stages. The 31-year-old has plenty of experience, playing in 384 matches in his career while notching 154 goals and 55 assists, and his three attempts in under 25 minutes suggest he could provide the Galaxy with an important attacking option off the bench as he builds his fitness heading into the rest of the MLS campaign.
Signs with Galaxy
Furuhashi has completed a transfer to the LA Galaxy from Birmingham City, according to his new club.
Analysis: Furuhashi is off to the USA as he joins his new club, leaving Europe after quite a few years of service across the pond. The former Scottish Premiership Golden Boot winner signs with the team through the 2030/31 season and will occupy an international slot. The 31-year-old has plenty of experience, playing in 384 matches in his career while notching 154 goals and 55 assists, with his best being a 34-goal season with Celtic during the 2022/23 season. He will now join the likes of Joao Klauss, Joseph Paintsil and Marco Reus in the Galaxy attack, a solid replacement in the attack after the loss of Gabriel Pec.
