You would think that NYCFC‘s midfield situation needs no attention with Frank Lampard, Andrea Pirlo, Mix Diskerud and their number one overall pick Jack Harrison. But after the recent injury news regarding their wonder boy Harrison, Patrick Vieira and his staff have made back-up plans.
Yesterday afternoon, the team announced their recent signing, midfielder Miguel “Mikey” Lopez. The 14th overall pick in the 2013 MLS SuperDraft was picked off the waiver wire from Sporting Kansas City.
This recent acquisition might not have happened if Harrison got injured.
