Anders Dreyer Crowned MLS Player of the Month

Anders Dreyer’s Record-Breaking June

Anders Dreyer powered San Diego FC to the Western Conference summit with a sensational nine goal contributions in three June matches. The Danish forward opened the month with two goals and an assist in a 4-2 triumph at Minnesota, followed by a hat-trick of assists that sparked a 5-3 comeback victory in Vancouver. He finished the run by scoring once and setting up two more in a last-gasp 3-2 win over FC Dallas, sweeping the media vote to earn MLS Player of the Month honors.

June Masterclass Propels San Diego

The expansion side now boasts 39 points from 20 matches, just one shy of league-leading Philadelphia. Dreyer leads MLS with 23 total goal contributions, including 14 assists, and joins Lionel Messi as the only players since 2024 to register three straight games of three or more contributions. His chemistry with wingers Sebastián Driussi and Cade Cowell has transformed San Diego from promising newcomer to genuine contender.

What’s Next for the Rookie Franchise?

Coach Landon Donovan’s men return to Snapdragon Stadium on July 5 to host Houston Dynamo before visiting Chicago on July 12 and welcoming Toronto on July 16. If Dreyer maintains this blistering form, San Diego could rewrite every record for an inaugural campaign.

Short Opinion

Dreyer’s versatility—floating between the half-spaces and the penalty spot—makes him nearly impossible to mark. If defenses can’t disrupt his service early, the Dane might finish 2025 with both the MVP trophy and an expansion-year title, a feat that would echo Atlanta United’s fairy-tale debut.
