This market will resolve to the player who wins the 2026 MLS Defender of the Year award. In the event of a tie, this market will resolve according to the official winner as determined by MLS rules. If multiple winners are announced then this market will resolve to the player whose listed last name comes first alphabetically. If the 2026 MLS season is cancelled, postponed after December 31, 2026 ET, or there is otherwise no winner declared within that timeframe, this market will resolve to “Other”. The resolution source for this market will be official information from Major League Soccer; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Early in the 2026 MLS season through matchday 8, trader consensus reflects a wide-open Defender of the Year race, with Andrés Reyes (44.1%) and Robert Voloder (44.0%) edging ahead on hype from Voloder's January signing and seamless integration into New York Red Bulls' backline—four starts, one assist, bolstering their low goals against—while Reyes' prior form with San Diego FC persists despite his ongoing lower body injury (expected return mid-May). Dave Romney (36.0%) and a cluster around 35% like Robin Jansson, Marcelo Silva, and Jakob Glesnes benefit from strong team clean sheets and aerial duel wins amid shared league-leading defensive metrics in tackles per 90 and interceptions, keeping probabilities tightly contested with small sample sizes and no dominant standout yet.
