Daniel Edelman is a highly-rated young American defensive midfielder for St. Louis City SC in MLS, viewed as a future cornerstone for both club and country. Born on April 28, 2003, the 22-year-old has quickly established a reputation for his maturity, tactical intelligence, and ball-winning capabilities. Standing 178 cm tall and weighing 61 kg, Edelman compensates for a lighter frame with exceptional positioning and tenacity. His professional breakthrough came with the New York Red Bulls academy and first team, where his composed performances in a deep-lying role turned heads. A transfer to St. Louis City SC for a significant fee reflects his high potential, underscored by a market value of €2 million. His honors include youth national team caps with the United States. Edelman's style is that of a modern number six: disciplined, an excellent passer under pressure, and a relentless disruptor of opposition play.
