Five crosses in loss Bajraktarevic registered four shots (three on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Toronto FC.
Impact Bajraktarevic was peppering the box from the flank, both from open play and from a pair of corners. The winger may not take on a huge starting role, especially at such a young age, but his impressive pre-season has clearly done enough to keep him in and around the starting XI. Bajraktarevic has played all but two minutes in the first two matches of 2024.

Used as substitute in 2023 Bajraktarevic registered 15 shots (five on target), 12 crosses (three accurate) and three chances created in 13 appearances (five starts) this season.
Impact Bajraktarevic struggled to find his way into the starting XI this season, only notching five starts as he served as a substitute for most of the season, only getting the nod off the bench in 13 matches. The attacker is only 18, so he still has a lot of room to improve and may be more of an option next year, especially pending the multiple players that are either out of contract or are waiting on a club option in the midfield.

Back with team Bajraktarevic was removed from the New England availability report for Saturday's clash with Philadelphia after returning from international duty.
Impact Bajraktarevic was called up by the United States U23 national team and missed a clash with Nashville. The midfielder should be an option to get back on the pitch for Decision Day. That said his role has dwindled in the closing stages of MLS, with just three appearances in the last nine matches.

Called up by U23 team Bajraktarevic will not be in contention against Nashville on Saturday due to international commitments with the United States U23 squad.
Impact Bajraktarevic has made just one start in the club's last 21 contests and was an unused substitute 13 times over that stretch. As such, his absence is unlikely to significantly impact the starting XI, though he has registered 196 minutes in those eight appearances.

Takes four shots in win over SKC Bajraktarevic had four shots (one on target), made two tackles (both won) and drew three fouls during Saturday's 2-1 win over Sporting Kansas City.
Impact Bajraktarevic made his second consecutive start and was very productive from the right flank although not at the same level of his attacking teammates. Anyway, the youngster keeps showing signs of development and at the same time earns the trust from his coach. He'll hope to remain in the lineup for next Saturday's home clash against Cincinnati.

Takes three shots in season debut Bajraktarevic took three shots (one on target) and created two chances in Saturday's 2-1 victory against D.C. United.
Impact Bajraktarevic made just his second ever MLS start Saturday, and he was dangerous on the right wing while Carles Gil was coming off an injury. The 18-year-old should return to the bench once Gil and Dylan Borrero fully return to the squad, but he should continue getting opportunities to play based off this impressive performance against D.C.
