Buchanan First Canadian Named to MLS Best XI For A Decade

As breakthrough seasons go, 2021 has been a pretty spectacular one for New England Revolution’s Tajon Buchanan.

This week he was named on the MLS Best XI team for 2021, the first Canadian to earn such recognition since Dwayne De Rosario played for three different clubs (Toronto FC, NY Red Bulls and DC United) in 2011.

Dwayne De Rosario was the last Canadian to be named in the MLS Best XI team, way back in 2011.

Not only that, he’s been selected for the MLS All-Star match, gained international recognition for the first time-ever (at any level) when called up for senior camp in January, and earned an exciting move to Club Brugge KV, the champions of Belgium and perennial Champions League group stage contenders.
