Players to Watch
Karol Swiderski
Swiderski is the most talented player on Charlotte's roster. If one player on this team is a real matchwinner, it's the Polish forward. He blossomed last year as a second-striker alongside a true No. 9, but Swiderski's been placed on the right wing most of this year to little avail.
Nuno Santos
Santos has yet to earn a big role for Charlotte, but the Portuguese midfielder is one of the most tantalizing players on the roster. He has technical flair and clear talent when he gets on the field. The former Benfica youngster could become a star with the right development and playing time.
Enzo Copetti
Copetti was the big addition for this team in the offseason. The big Argentine forward signed after a career season for Racing Club in his home country. He's shown plenty of promise as a big target forward in the box but has struggled to find consistent service so far.
