Frankie Amaya to join LAFC on loan after spending two seasons with Toluca in Liga MX

Major League Soccer

Los Angeles FC

St. Louis City

<p>Frankie Amaya will join LAFC for the current MLS season after spending two seasons with Toluca in Liga MX. The UCLA product arrives on loan after playing just two matches in the Clausura 2025 with the Diablos Rojos, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DIzLtJ1pvUs/?igsh=NTNmbmt5OHljd3Q0" target="_blank">according to GiveMeSport</a>.</p><p>Coming from the New York Red Bulls, he played 12 matches in his debut tournament. During that span, he recorded two assists and one yellow card in 328 minutes of play.</p><p>The American midfielder only played in the first two matches of the Clausura 2025 under the Argentine coach, logging just 23 minutes. Since then, he hasn't played with the Diablos' first team.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Amaya joined the Diablos Rojos in the summer of 2024 as a long-term investment, with a $3.5 million transfer from the New York Red Bulls. However, the midfielder struggled to adapt to Liga MX, and his performances declined over time.</p><p>Under Renato Paiva, he saw some playing time, but with the arrival of "Turco" Mohamed, he lost prominence until he was completely sidelined.</p><p>Toluca finished the regular season in first place and will compete in the Liguilla, which will be played on May 7-8. The early announcement of Amaya’s departure indicates that the midfielder is not part of the club’s plans - not even as a backup option - for the Quarterfinals and beyond.</p><p></p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>After forgoing his final three years of NCAA eligibility, Amaya was selected first overall in the MLS SuperDraft by FC Cincinnati, where he played 43 matches before being transferred to the Red Bulls. With the Red Bulls, he made 104 appearances and scored 8 goals.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>LAFC currently sits in seventh place in the Western Conference with 13 points and a 4-1-4 record. On Sunday, they will face St. Louis City SC on Matchday 10 of the MLS season.</p>
