On Monday, the first moves of the MLS Offseason came when Sporting Kansas City announced they weren’t picking up the options on four players and that two more (Erik Palmer-Brown and Cameron Porter) were out of contract. We’ll break it down move by move starting with the least shocking and moving towards the most.
Iwasa was seen as a low-risk, high-reward player and he simply didn’t pan out. In 2016 he played for the Sacramento Republic and scored 12 goals. He never played a single minute for Sporting KC but instead spent much of the season with the Swope Park Rangers, but only netted two goals in 22 appearances.
