Ponce, who has scored 36 goals in 81 matches for AEK Athens, comes in as a true goalscorer. His ability to finish plays and his presence on the pitch make him a player who can make the difference in any game.

The choice of Ponce as a designated player – a position that allows MLS clubs to exceed the salary cap to attract top talent – ​​is not only a tactical decision but also a sign that the Houston Dynamo is ready to compete at the most high level. The American league, which is growing in popularity and quality, is attracting more and more renowned international players, and the arrival of Ponce is another step in this direction.

With the announcement that the Houston Dynamo is considering selling Sebastián Ferreira, it is evident that the team is in a process of renewing and adjusting its strategy. Ferreira, who had some brilliant times with Dynamo, could be on his way out and his sale could fund further team improvements.

There is a palpable feeling that Dynamo is finally ready to move from supporting participant to true contender in MLS.
