One of the early disappointments in what turned into a season of many disappointments for Sporting KC was the play and quick release of former KC midfielder, Jose Mauri after a 27 minute substitute appearance in the season opener in Atlanta. Mauri entered the game in the 50th minute for Oriol Rosell, but was then subbed back out in the 77th minute for Marinos Tzionis. In the weeks after the game, news came out that Kansas City was going to be looking to get out of the contract with Mauri. About six weeks after the season opening loss to Atlanta United, KC officially announced that they had agreed to mutually terminate Mauri’s contract.
