Minnesota United loaned homegrown defender Devin Padelford to St. Louis Metropolis for the rest of the season, the Western Convention golf equipment introduced Tuesday.
In trade, Minnesota will obtain a third-round choose within the 2026 MLS SuperDraft.
Padelford, 22, has one objective and one help in 36 MLS matches (20 begins) for MNUFC since his 2023 debut.
“Devin is a younger participant who has already proven maturity and potential on the MLS degree,” St. Louis sporting director Lutz Pfannenstiel mentioned. “His potential to get ahead from the left facet, mixed together with his defensive instincts, will present us with another choice as we push via the tip of the season.”
With 11 matches remaining, St. Louis (4-13-6, 18 factors) sits 11 factors under the MLS Cup Playoffs line. Minnesota (11-5-8, 41 factors) is in third place, simply two behind West-leading San Diego FC.
