Former Sporting KC Designated Player, Felipe Gutierrez is back in MLS. After two years with his former club, Universidad Catolica, it was announced today that Gutierrez has joined the Colorado Rapids on loan from his Chilean club. To acquire Gutierrez, Colorado traded $50,000 in GAM to Sporting for his MLS priority. This is because Sporting KC selected Gutierrez in the second round of the Re-Entry Draft back in 2020. Doing so at the time required KC to make him a bona fide offer and allows KC to keep his MLS rights. During his three years with Kansas City, Gutierrez appeared in just over half of KC’s 102 league games, scoring nineteen goals and adding five assists in league play.
