Matt Freese
27-Year-Old
New York City FC
MLS
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Freese was a key factor in NYCFC's success in 2024, helping the team reach the semi-final of the Leagues Cup and the MLS Eastern Conference. Despite allowing more goals in 2024, Freese was able to solidify a strong presence in the box with an average of 3.5 saves per game, putting him among the league leaders in that category. With Thiago Martins remaining in 2025 and a new coach, Freese could see more clean sheets, especially if a defensively-minded one is hired.
Keeps clean sheet
Freese made two saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 2-0 win against Charlotte FC.
ANALYSIS
Freese was able to hold on to the clean sheet Saturday after saving Wilfred Zaha's penalty kick attempt. This is his eighth clean sheet of the season, surpassing his total from 2024 with four more regular season games left.
