Over the weekend, veteran striker Kei Kamara was shipped to Minnesota United for $120,000 worth of General Allocation Money, as well as a second-round draft pick in 2022. The departure of the 36-year-old striker doesn’t necessarily come as a surprise, but it does create a few questions around the club.
The obvious first question is: Who will replace Kamara as the club’s striker?
The clear answer is forward Diego Rubio, who bagged 11 goals last season (compared to Kamara’s 14) and has two this season, both coming in the 5-0 drubbing of Real Salt Lake.
