Former RWB Adria Chicago forward and MWPL alumn Tommy Mihalic has signed a professional contract with MLS Next Pro side LAFC 2. Mihalic, originally from Skokie, IL, spent the last three seasons with founding MWPL member club RWB Adria Chicago, where he was part of the squad that secured the Heartland Division 1 title last season. Though he missed the 2024 season due to injury, Mihalic’s impact during his three years at the Chicago-based club was undeniable.
Mihalic also had a standout collegiate career at Indiana University and earned six caps with the Croatian U17 national team. Before joining RWB Adria, he had gained valuable experience competing in the U19 Bundesliga with FC Augsburg.
RWB Adria Team Manager Ante Loncar reflected on Mihalic’s time at the club, stating, “From the first time Tommy suited up you could see something special in him! We wish him the best of luck in his career.”
Mihalic now joins LAFC 2, where he will look to continue his development at the professional level.
