Minnesota United is Making Major Moves Ahead of 2026 Season

As Minnesota United's preseason training sessions kick off in January, the Loons are taking a bold approach to restock their roster. Gone are stalwarts like MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Dayne St. Clair and fellow MLS All-Star Robin Lod, who have joined new teams in Miami and Chicago, respectively. The departure of Joseph Rosales to Austin and the signing of free agent Hassani Dotson with Seattle are just a few of the changes that signal a significant overhaul.

The team's new head coach, Cameron Knowles, is tasked with leading the team through this transition period. With Eric Ramsay now leading West Bromwich Albion in England's second division, Knowles will be relying on his recruitment team to bring in fresh talent. The Loons are actively looking to add new players via the transfer window, with a potential Designated Player reportedly on the radar.

Minnesota United is also exploring options for midfielder Tomi Horvat, a 26-year-old Slovenian player currently plying his trade in Austria's Bundesliga. Horvat has impressive goal-scoring credentials and could be a key addition to the squad. The Loons are also reportedly interested in signing New Zealand attacker Callum McCowatt, who has consistently impressed in Denmark's Superliga.

However, not all news is positive for Minnesota United. Midfielder Nectar Triantis has been granted time away from training camp due to personal reasons, a development that comes as the team gears up for their upcoming campaign. The Loons will be back in action on January 24 at their preseason training session in Irvine, California.

As the 2026 season approaches, Minnesota United is looking to make some noise in the transfer market and revitalize its squad. With Knowles at the helm, the Loons are poised to make a push for success in the coming year.
 
Omg 🤯 just read about Minnesota United making major moves ahead of 2026 season 😲 their new head coach Cameron Knowles is gonna bring fresh talent 🔄 and revitalize the squad 💪 but waaat 💔 gotta see what happens with Nectar Triantis taking time off 🤕 fingers crossed he gets back to form 💪 hopefully they can add some serious firepower 🔥 and compete with the big boys ⚽️
 
I'm kinda skeptical about this whole "new era" vibe 🤔. Losing key players like St. Clair and Lod is never good, and I don't trust that Knowles can bring in fresh talent quickly enough. They're gonna need to do some serious digging to find a replacement for those guys. And what's up with the Designated Player rumor? Sounds fishy to me 🐟. Can't they just sign someone who's proven themselves already instead of chasing after someone who might not even make it in a year? 💸
 
Ugh I'm so confused why they're gettin' rid of all these talented players like Dayne St. Clair and Robin Lod already!!! 😩 They had such great chemistry on the field and now it's just gonna be some new faces comin' in and tryin' to fill their shoes? 🤔 I mean, what if they can't replicate that magic?! And omg what about Nectar Triantis? He's got personal issues? Poor guy needs some time away from trainin' camp... hope he gets the help he needs ASAP 💕. But on a positive note, a Designated Player on the radar sounds AMAZING!!! 💥 Let's get that talented player in and make Minnesota United a force to be reckoned with again! 🌟
 
🤔 idk about this major overhaul, guys. one minute they're letting their best players go and the next they're scrambling to fill the gaps 🤯. cameron knowles is gonna have his work cut out for him, that's for sure 😅. i mean, tomi horvat sounds like a decent signing, but we'll see how it all plays out. personally, i'm still reeling from the departure of dayne st. clair 🙈. let's not forget about nectar triantis' personal issues either... hope he gets his head back in the game 💡
 
omg I cant even!!! they're literally rebuilding from scratch 🤯! i mean i know los was an amazing player but u gotta move on right? 🙌 cameron knowles is gonna be like the best coach ever 💥 and if they get that dp they'll be UNSTOPPABLE 💪😍 callum mccowatt is a genius signing he needs to play for us ASAP!!! 🎉
 
omg I'm so hyped about the changes Minnesota United is making 🤩! they're basically starting from scratch and I love how bold they're being with their roster moves 💪. I mean, losing some of those big names like St. Clair and Lod was a shock, but I think it's gonna be cool to see new faces join the squad 👋. I'm super stoked about the potential Designated Player signing tho... if it happens 🤞! also, Horvat sounds like an amazing addition, can you imagine him in action on the field? 🏈. fingers crossed they can find some talented players and make a real push for success this season 💥
 
man this whole thing got me thinking... like what even is success anymore? Is it just about winning and winning some more, or is there something more to it than that? 🤔 I mean Minnesota United's trying to revitalize their squad, but at what cost? Are they selling out to the highest bidder, or are they really looking out for the fans' best interests?

And what about Tomi Horvat, this Slovenian midfielder who's got some sweet goals under his belt... is he just another cog in the machine, or is he something more? Is he a game-changer, or just a new face in a sea of sameness? 🤷‍♂️ I feel like Minnesota United's trying to chase after this elusive dream of success, but are they really looking at what it means to be successful in the first place?

It's like, what even is a team anymore? Is it just a group of people who wear the same jersey, or is there something more to it than that? 🏆 I mean, they're making moves, they're signing new players, but are they really changing anything? Are they really shaking things up, or are they just following the same old script? 📝
 
OMG u guys!!! 🤩 I'm literally SHAKING with excitement! 😆 The changes happening @ Minnesota United is insane!!! 💥 They're basically rebooting the whole team and I AM HERE FOR IT!!! 🙌 Can't wait to see what new players they bring in, especially that Designated Player rumor 💁‍♀️! And Tomi Horvat? FORGET ABOUT IT!!! 😍 He's like the next big thing and I need him on our squad ASAP!!! 💪 Don't even get me started on Callum McCowatt... that guy is a goal-scoring machine 🤯! 💥 Now, let's hope Nectar Triantis gets his personal stuff sorted out and we can move forward with the rest of the team. Bring it on @ 2026 season!!! 🔥
 
OMG, I'm loving this major shake-up for MNUFC!!! It's about time they brought in some fresh faces 🤩. I mean, losing St. Clair and Lod was a huge blow, but I think Knowles is gonna bring in some serious talent 💪. That Tomi Horvat guy sounds like a game-changer! And I'm all for signing that Callum McCowatt fella - he's got that NZ vibe going on 😎. My only concern is Nectar Triantis' personal issues, hope he gets back to training soon 🤞. One thing's for sure, the Loons are gonna be a force to be reckoned with this season! 💥
 
omg, i'm so hyped for MN United this season 🤩🔥! Cameron Knowles is gonna bring some serious change and it's gonna be lit 🔥💪. The addition of Hassani Dotson from Seattle sounds amazing 🤯, let's see him tear it up on the pitch! 😆 also, i'm loving the rumors about Tomi Horvat, he seems like a beast ⚽️🔴. Nectar Triantis taking time off is defo not ideal tho ⏰😕, fingers crossed he gets back to training ASAP 🤞
 
OMG u guys, can't believe what's happening with @MNUFC!!! 🤯 They're like totally revamping their team! Gone are the old boys and hello new fresh faces! 🎉 I mean, Cameron Knowles is gonna have his work cut out for him but I'm so down to see what he brings to the table. That Designated Player rumors tho... 💸 Could be huge! And Tomi Horvat? 😍 He's got those goal-scoring credentials and I'd love to see him in a Loons jersey. Keep an eye out, folks! This is gonna be one wild ride 🎠
 
🤯 I think it's gonna be a tough season for MNU! Losing St. Clair & Lod will definitely hurt, but if they can bring in some new talent, I'm all for it 🎉. That Dotson signing from Seattle is a good move, I reckon 😊. But what's up with the midfield situation? Triantis getting time off? Hopefully that's just a minor issue and not a sign of bigger problems 🤔. Knowles needs to bring in some solid players ASAP or MNU might struggle to keep up ⚽️.
 
the MLS transfer window is so crazy 🤯 I mean, one day we're seeing players like Lod and Rosales leaving, and the next, new signings like Dotson and Horvat joining... it's like the team is being rewritten from scratch 📝

i'm a bit worried about Nectar Triantis' absence though - personal issues can be tough to deal with, especially when you've got a big season ahead of you 💔

but overall, i think Cameron Knowles is exactly what Minnesota United needed - someone who's all-in on making this team a winner 🏆
 
Wow 😮 The fact that they're getting rid of players like St. Clair and Lod and bringing in fresh talent is super interesting 🤔. I mean, it's clear they want to shake things up and create some excitement around the team. But losing guys like Nectar Triantis due to personal reasons is never good news 💔. Still, with Cameron Knowles at the helm and a Designated Player reportedly on the radar, there's definitely hope for this season 🌟
 
🤔 I'm intrigued by the major roster shakeup happening at Minnesota United. It's clear that they're going all-in on making some significant changes ahead of the 2026 season 📈. While it's sad to see some fan favorites like Dayne St. Clair and Robin Lod leave, it'll be interesting to see how Cameron Knowles' recruitment team manages to bring in fresh talent to replace them 💡.

The addition of Hassani Dotson from Seattle is a great move, considering his skills on the pitch 🚀. And if they can secure that Designated Player spot, things could get really exciting for Loons fans 🔥. The rumors surrounding Tomi Horvat and Callum McCowatt are also too good to pass up – I'd love to see them in action at Allianz Field ⚽️.

However, the news about Nectar Triantis taking a break from training camp due to personal reasons is definitely a concern 🤕. Midfield depth is crucial for any team, and I hope he's able to get back on track quickly 👍. Overall, though, I think Minnesota United has made some bold moves that could pay off big time come March ⏰.
 
I'm not sure if I love this new direction they're taking... Some changes can be seen as necessary, like bringing in fresh blood after those big departures, but it's still gonna take some time to see how these new players mesh with the team 🤔. Tomi Horvat could be a great addition tho! The thing that has me worried is Nectar Triantis' personal reasons, I hope he gets the help he needs and isn't holding up the whole squad 😕. But you know what? Cameron Knowles seems like a solid coach, so I'm keeping an eye on how this all plays out 👀
 
🤔 The ebb and flow of life is reflected in the ever-changing landscape of sports teams... one moment we have stalwarts like St. Clair and Lod, the next they're gone, making way for new talent. It's like the passage of time itself - we're all just trying to find our place and contribute to something bigger than ourselves 🌟. Minnesota United's bold moves got me thinking, what does it mean to be 'restocked' in more ways than one? Is it about replenishing our reserves for the next challenge or is it an exercise in self-preservation? 🤝 And then there's the role of coaches - do they have a say in shaping our identity or are we just along for the ride? The questions swirl, but I suppose that's what makes life so... interesting 😊.
