Mikey Lopez signs with New York City FC

The former Sporting KC midfielder posted his farewell to the club yesterday.

Mikey Lopez has signed with New York City FC, the club confirmed on Tuesday. Lopez had posted a farewell to Sporting Kansas City on Monday.

Lopez was Sporting KC's first round draft pick in 2013 and never found a foothold with the club. He spent the majority of his time either with Orlando City or Oklahoma City Energy FC on loan and was far down on the depth chart at central midfield. His contract ran out after the 2015 season and was not re-signed by Sporting KC.
