Gets credited with assist Trapp assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Saturday's 3-1 win versus San Diego FC.

Impact Trapp didn't do much offensively in terms of stats but still managed to get an assist in the Minnesota goal fest in the second half. He will likely rack up more defensive stats next week against Chicago Fire, a side which has scored 54 goals in 29 MLS games.

Logs assist in draw Trapp made an assist and made two tackles (both won) and one interception during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Portland.

Impact Trapp isn't much of a stat-stuffer and this game wasn't being the exception. However, in the 85th minute the midfielder made a huge contribution, assisting Robin Lod for the goal that sealed the 1-1 draw. This was the first assist of the year for Trapp, who showed some playmaking upside in some games but still needs better overall numbers to be considered a viable fantasy pick.

Trapp produced a nice showing, though he's not likely to be a consistent offensive contributor.

Loons' Wil Trapp says Hassani Dotson's trade request has not been a distraction Trapp shared his own story of wanting to leave Columbus Crew.

FEBRUARY 19, 2025 • TWINCITIES.COM

Staying with Loons Trapp has signed a one-year contract with Minnesota, according to the club.

Impact Trapp will remain with Minnesota for yet another season, with the club deciding to give the midfielder a one-year deal after weeks of negotiations. He started in 29 of his 30 appearances last season, finishing his fourth straight season as a regular starter for the Loons while notching one goal and an assist. That said, he sees most of his time on the defensive side of the pitch, so despite the heaps of minutes he receives, he isn't of the highest value due to his low goal contribution count.

JANUARY 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Still negotiating Trapp remains in contract negotiations with Minnesota, the club announced.

Impact Trapp was on the list of players declined for 2025 by Minnesota, but unsurprisingly, the club still has interest in bringing him back. The midfielder made 30 appearances in 2024, scoring and assisting once. He's a rock-solid presence in holding midfield and if he can agree a new deal he'll be in line for major minutes.

Logs assist Saturday Trapp logged one assist on his three chances created during Minnesota United's 3-2 loss Saturday against Seattle.

Impact The best pass Trapp sent Saturday was a through ball that Kelvin Yeboah used to score his second goal against Seattle. That assist marks Trapp's first since 2021, more than two years ago. Breaking the cold streak was an excellent consolation for Trapp, who had sat out for two months because of a problem concerning one of his hamstrings.

Starts against Seattle Trapp (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup for Saturday's match against Seattle Sounders.

Impact Trapp is expected to play a central midfield role as he makes the squad for the first time since June 23. Prior to the injury, he scored once from a penalty kick in 18 matches played while averaging 38.4 accurate passes and 2.1 tackles per game.

Returns to training Monday Trapp (hamstring) took part in training Monday and could be an option to face Necaxa on Tuesday in the 2024 Leagues Cup, Andy Greder of the St. Paul Pioneer-Press reports.

Impact Trapp suffered a hamstring injury in late June and was initially given a recovery timeline of between three-to-five weeks, so he seems to be on schedule. The fact that he returned to training suggests he might be a game-time call to take on Necaxa in Minnesota's final match of the 2024 Leagues Cup group stage.

JULY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Set for 3-5 week absence Trapp has been suffering from a hamstring injury and will miss the next 3-5 weeks, reports Andy Greder of the Pioneer Press.

Impact Trapp looked to have suffered a hamstring injury during the warmups Saturday, leading him to be late scratch during the loss to Portland. He will not miss the next few weeks, also putting him at jeopardy for the League Cup tournament. The midfielder had started all 18 games played for Minnesota, totaling a goal with 37 tackles (21 won), 21 clearances and 16 crosses (four accurate). Moses Nyeman will likely replace him in the starting XI as he recovers from his injury.

Late scratch Saturday Trapp was a late scratch during Saturday's clash with Portland.

Impact Trapp was scratched shortly before kick off during Saturday's clash for undisclosed reasons. It's not clear what the injury was but it's obviously a large concern as Trapp has been a consistent piece of the starting XI throughout the season.

JUNE 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Rare goal Wednesday Trapp scored one goal with three shots (one on goal) during Minnesota United's 5-3 loss Wednesday at Dallas.

Impact After logging his first 2024 DNP on Sunday, likely because Minnesota's team must play thrice across six days, Trapp was added back to its starting XI at Dallas. He rewarded the addition by recording his first goal since 2021.

JUNE 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't train Thursday Trapp didn't participate in Thursday's training session despite being present with the rest of the group, Andy Greder of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Impact Perhaps this was nothing more than a scheduled off day for the veteran midfielder, as he's yet to miss a game while being ever-present in the starting lineup this season. He should return to training in the coming days, as Minnesota is on a bye this weekend and won't play until May 15 when facing the Galaxy.

MAY 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Four shots Saturday Trapp registered four shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Houston Dynamo.

Impact After recording zero shots in his previous five matches, Trapp recorded four (two on target) in Saturday's loss. He also recorded a secondary assist on Franco Fragapane's goal in the 70th minute. He was subbed off in the 81st minute for Jordan Adebayo-Smith.
