Expert Analysis
Sean Maslin | Prep Soccer Scout
Argueta has had a strong start to CONCACAF Championship play, scoring a brace against Haiti to lead the side to a 3-1 win. His runs off of the ball and deadly left-footed shot make him a tough target to mark. That he can also work his way through traffic and exploit even the smallest of spaces will make him that much more difficult to defend. He has been tearing in MLS Next for D.C. United and looks like he might be ready for a higher level of club play.

Argueta scored a key brace for United in their tough 3-2 win over Atlanta United U17 Academy on Saturday. Although he is the club’s number nine, he has just four goals this season. That isn’t necessarily to say that he hasn’t been involved with the attack, but that he has been more focused with the setup of the club’s attacking plays. If he is now moving more into taking shots versus creating them for others that will give United another real solid piece up top.

Argueta netted a brace in United’s 2-0 win over SYC earlier in the month and has been a steadying presence in the midfield all season long. He is comfortable playing on both ends of the pitch and is integral the club’s transition from a defensive posture to an attacking one. Alongside Cossio and Sydney Aggrey United have found a very dangerous trio that may help them repeat in the MLSNext Cup. Argueta has also represented the United States Youth National Team at the U16 level.
