Cristian Roldán
Seattle Sounders/M/
United StatesPlayer Info
Cristian Roldán is the heart and soul of the Seattle Sounders midfield, an energetic and intelligent box-to-box presence who has become one of Major League Soccer's most consistent and decorated American players. Now in his prime at 30, Roldán's career has been exclusively with Seattle since being drafted in 2015, growing from a promising rookie into a club legend and U.S. national team regular. His game is defined by relentless work rate, tactical versatility—he can play centrally, defensively, or on the right wing—and a knack for scoring crucial goals. He has been instrumental in the Sounders' era of sustained success, winning two MLS Cups (2016, 2019), the CONCACAF Champions League in 2022, and multiple other domestic trophies. Individually, he has been named to the MLS Best XI and is a perennial All-Star. A leader on and off the pitch, Roldán's combination of technical skill, competitive fire, and durability makes him the prototype of the modern MLS midfielder and a cornerstone for both club and country.
