Joins LAFC

Cheberko was acquired by LAFC from Columbus Crew in exchange for a 2026 international roster slot, the club announced.

Analysis: Cheberko joins as a defensive reinforcement, bringing experience from one of MLS's top clubs in Columbus as LAFC look to strengthen their backline options for the remainder of the season. The Ukrainian center-back managed just three appearances and 83 minutes with Columbus this season after playing 32 matches in the previous campaign, making the move an opportunity to reignite his career and secure regular playing time in a new environment.
