Columbus Crew Mock Draft
Major League Soccer Mock Draft • 2026 Season
Columbus Crew Draft Analysis
Heading into the draft, the Columbus Crew has a pressing need to bolster their attacking options while also shoring up their defensive line. With a potent offensive core already in place, particularly in the midfield, the Crew could benefit from adding depth at forward and enhancing their backline to support a more aggressive play style. Additionally, the departure of key players has left gaps that need to be addressed to maintain competitiveness in the Eastern Conference.
One intriguing prospect for the Crew is Mamadou Billo Diop, a striker from Colorado Rapids 2, who possesses the physicality and finishing ability that could complement Columbus's offensive setup. His potential to contribute immediately aligns well with the Crew's goals of enhancing their scoring output. In the midfield, Kwaku Agyabeng from Clemson presents another strong fit, bringing box-to-box capabilities and the dynamism needed to connect defense and attack. Lastly, on the backline, Nikola Markovic from NC State stands out as an elite prospect who could provide immediate stability and leadership in central defense, addressing a critical need for the Crew.
