On Monday, MLSSoccer.com’s Tom Bogert reported that the Columbus Crew was open to trading forward Gyasi Zardes. The report also stated that sources told him that Zardes was also shopped around to other teams for a potential trade. On Friday, Crew head coach Caleb Porter didn’t mince words when asked about the report.
“I know nothing about the article,” said Porter referencing the report. “Nothing’s changed from our end. We’re not trying to shop Gyasi. If that’s what came out in the article, that’s inaccurate.”
Porter continued his time praising the Black & Gold’s situation at forward.
