Where are they now?: Wil Trapp
Today marks Wil Trapp‘s 33rd birthday, and he celebrates it as the heartbeat of the Loons’ midfield. While this series often focuses on players who have moved on to new horizons, Trapp is a rare case of a player whose “where are they now” answer is exactly where fans want him to be—anchoring the center of the pitch at Allianz Field.
Entering 2026, Trapp remains a cornerstone of the Minnesota United project. Following a productive 2025 campaign where he surpassed 10,000 career minutes for the club, the veteran midfielder officially saw his 2026 contract option exercised this winter.
As he celebrates his 33rd birthday today, he does so as one of the longest-tenured leaders in the locker room, prepared to guide the Loons through another high-stakes MLS season under a shifting tactical landscape.
