The Galaxy continue to finish filling out their roster with the signing of former Sporting Kansas City goalkeeper Jon Kempin. At the age of 23, Kempin offers both immediate depth at the position and the potential to develop into a top-level keeper.
“Jon is a young player with potential that can provide us with valuable depth at the goalkeeper position,” said Peter Vagenas in a statement. “He impressed during our preseason this year and we are excited to bring him on board.”
Kempin, from Overland Park, Kan., inked his first professional contract with the Kansas City Wizards at the age of 17, signing as a Generation Adidas player and becoming the youngest signee in team history.
