After an up-and-down start to life in USA's Major League Soccer, Osman Bukari is beginning to find his stride early in the 2025 season and produced a moment of magic on Sunday for Austin FC.

The 26-year-old was instrumental in creating the only goal of the match as Austin FC claimed three points with a 1-0 victory at St. Louis City. Bukari's mesmerizing dribble run on the right wing created space for the Ghanaian to set up Albanian striker Myrto Uzuni who finished in the 33rd minute.

It was big money signing setting up another. Bukari, signed midway through the 2024 season for €7 million from Red Star Belgrade, assisted club record signing Uzuni who arrived for €12 million this season from Spanish club Granada.

Bukari now has one goal and one assist in six matches this season after a promising preseason. Austin have won their last three matches and are now in second place in the Western Conference table with twelve points from six matches.

Bukari and Austin will next host Portland Timbers on Saturday, April 5.
