Before his MLS career truly got underway, Rashawn Dally (Bloomfield, Conn.) first had to get a taste of professional soccer elsewhere.
Picked in the third round (49th overall) of the 2019 MLS SuperDraft by FC Cincinnati, he was loaned out to Memphis 901 FC in the USL Championship.
With MLS-proven forwards in Fanendo Adi, Kekuta Manneh and Darren Mattocks on FCC’s expansion roster, the opportunity accelerated Dally’s learning curve.
