Because it has been a slow off-season, this week, I thought it would be worthwhile to focus on the developments from a year ago surrounding FC Kansas City, the two-time NWSL championship-winning team that ceased operations last November. Utah Royals FC would eventually join the league, taking FCKC’s spot, with KC players’ rights also inherited by the new Utah club. I look back, like a #TBT, of sorts, and look ahead at where the NWSL is today, so here we go.
What went wrong?
Last September, FourFourTwo featured a piece doubts on FC Kansas City’s future, that the club could be sold and potentially relocated.
