Transfer window closed on Sporting KC's search for defensive help

The primary transfer window has closed and it appears that SKC search for center back help may have to wait until the summer window

Ever since Ike Opara limped off the field with an Achilles tendon injury on April 11th, Sporting Kansas City manager has been looking for some help at center back. With the primary transfer window closing Tuesday, that search is even harder and may have to wait until July now.

Major League Soccer's primary transfer window closed Tuesday night, meaning that any incoming players that are under contract with a club overseas had to be completed by that time or they could not join their new team until the secondary window which opens on July 8.
