22 Under 22 Presented by BodyArmor 2024 – Candidates

October 7, 2024

The 2024 edition of MLSsoccer.com’s 22 Under 22 presented by BODYARMOR list will be unveiled on Wednesday, October 9.

This annual series spotlights the league’s top up-and-coming young talent. Voters – select MLS staff, MLS Season Pass talent, and Club technical staff – were asked to rank their top 22 players based on technical, tactical, physical, and potential abilities.

Eligibility criteria

To be eligible:

  • Players must remain 21 or younger before the end of the 2024 MLS regular season, which is Decision Day on October 19.
  • With the above cut-off date, players must be born after October 19, 2002.
  • Players who turned 22 before the 2024 MLS regular season ends have missed out (too old).

Also, some editorial discretion was applied. Several players were omitted when weighing their first-team impact and résumé thus far.
