The Galaxy's new arrival has three goals in less than 160 minutes since joining the MLS side from boyhood club Sheffield United

in a 2-2 draw and won his first start in a defeat to LAFC last weekend, where he scored his third goal.

Sharp’s goals will be essential if the Galaxy are to qualify for the postseason. The Galaxy are without club captain and designated player Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez, who has been placed on the season-ending list after suffering an ACL injury. Serbia international, the club’s other first-team striker, has struggled to impact games from the start, so head coach Greg Vanney is expected to lean on Sharp’s experience in leading the line as his fitness improves.

Naturally, given the esteem he holds in England and, particularly, with Sheffield United, a career in coaching feels like an obvious next step for when he finally hangs up his boots. He completed his UEFA A License coaching qualification in England and coaches his son’s local club in his spare time, something he enjoys and takes seriously.
