## Caption

With the Seattle Sounders finally reportedly pursuing a No. 9, we're breaking down the big news and what it could mean for a Sounders team that just broke the longest losing streak in club history with this weekend's 1-1 draw at FC Cincinnati. Is Dejan Joveljić the striker who can save Seattle's season? And how does he stack up against some of the other No. 9s from across MLS?

We'll also react to the Sounders' draw in Cincy and ask: Between the performance at TQL Stadium and the potential arrival of Joveljić, are the vibes of the 2026 season finally headed back in a positive direction?
