Seattle’s Spencer Richey close to joining Sounders, report says

The Seattle Sounders will likely be bringing a couple locals back home this week. In addition to the expected signing of Kelyn Rowe, a new report suggests that Spencer Richey will also be joining the team.

Spencer Richey is set to sign with the Seattle Sounders, sources tell The Athletic. The goalkeeper joins his hometown team after making 29 starts for Cincinnati in 2019 and 2020.

Like Rowe, Richey was a bit too old to have played in the Sounders Academy, instead playing youth soccer for Crossfire and the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida.
