Over the course of a few days, the Seattle Sounders were dealt significant blows on and off the field.
First came news that Chris Henderson would be joining Inter Miami. As much as anyone, Henderson was the architect of the Sounders’ MLS success, one of the key talent evaluators from the 2009 roster through the 2020 MLS Cup finalists.
A few days later, Jordan Morris’ loan to Swansea City became official. Over his five years with the Sounders, Morris had established himself as arguably the most successful Homegrown Player in league history. He helped lead the Sounders to four MLS Cup finals, delivered two titles and fulfilled just about every dream fans had for him when he first signed.
