The Seattle Sounders departed for the final stage of their preseason with just about everyone finally joining training camp.
Up until now, preseason has been almost exclusively about fitness as about half of the Sounders’ projected starters have been away for one reason or another. But with Xavier Arreaga, Jordan Morris, Alex Roldán and Cristian Roldan all back from international duty, and João Paulo’s green card situation resolved, the Sounders can now finally start to work on the more tactical aspects during their week in Palm Springs.
“I’m super excited about this last camp,” Sounders head coach Brian Schmetzer told reporters on Tuesday, shortly before boarding a plane for Southern California.
