In a super surprising move today, we have confirmed that the Colorado Rapids did in fact trade defender Marc Burch to Minnesota United. In return, the Rapids will get midfielders Josh Gatt and Mohammed Saeid. It’s no surprise that Minnesota has an abysmal defense and wants to bolster it, but at first glance this move is a little confusing for Rapids fans (more on that below). Sam Cronin was waived by the team and then picked up by MNUFC.
Josh Gatt has played two games with the US Men’s National Team, but hasn’t even made the bench this year for MNUFC due to a bum knee.
