Major League Soccer Mock Draft • 2026 Season
D.C. United Draft Analysis
D.C. United enters the draft looking to solidify their defense and enhance their attacking options after a season of inconsistency. With a pressing need for a reliable center back to partner with their existing defensive line, as well as depth in the attacking midfield and forward positions, the club must identify players who can contribute immediately and help stabilize their roster. The team’s recent struggles have highlighted the importance of versatile and dynamic players who can adapt to various roles as needed.
Nikola Markovic stands out as the ideal selection with the first overall pick, given his potential to start immediately and shore up the backline. His strong physical presence and excellent tackling ability make him a perfect fit for D.C.'s defensive needs. Additionally, Richie Aman could be a valuable second-round pick, bringing immediate attacking prowess as a right winger who excels at creating chances and finishing plays. With these prospects, D.C. United could effectively address their pressing gaps and build a more competitive squad moving forward.
