LAFC selects CSUN standout Daniel Trejo at No. 14 in the MLS draft
Daniel Trejo won’t have far to go to begin his professional soccer career after LAFC selected the Cal State Northridge senior with the 14th overall pick in Thursday’s MLS SuperDraft.
“I’m just very happy and excited to start this new journey with LAFC,” said Trejo, who had 26 goals in an all-conference career at CSUN. “My dream has always been to play for an MLS team. And a good team. LAFC is one of the best teams in MLS.”
Trejo is the second Northridge player to be taken in the first round of the MLS SuperDraft, following Sean Franklin in 2008. Franklin went on to win two MLS Cups with the Galaxy.
