Twenty-Four Under 24
MLSsoccer.com's "24 Under 24" returns Sept. 12
![]() One of MLSsoccer.com’s most popular series is back and better than ever. Just in time for the stretch run to the MLS Cup playoffs. Beginning on Monday, Sept. 12, MLSsoccer.com will bring you our second annual 24 Under 24 — the ultimate countdown of the 24 best MLS players under the age of 24. Who will succeed Seattle’s Fredy Montero at the top of the list? Mark your calendars: The 24 Under 24 fan vote kicks off Sept. 5 with the final countdown to No. 1 beginning in earnest on Sept. 12. Last year's top three in the rankings earned a DP contract, a US national team call-up and MLS Rookie of the Year honors, respectively. Who's next? http://www.mlssoccer.com/24-under-24 |
