During an offseason in which Sporting Kansas City centralized resources on reinvigorating the offense, the club took another step Monday morning.
Sporting KC made official the transfer acquisition of winger Latif Blessing from Liberty Professionals FC of the Ghana Premier League, five days after it announced it had added designated player Gerso Fernandes at the same position.
The contract with Blessing, reported by The Star last month, will run through the 2019 season with an option for 2020.
Blessing, who turned 20 on Dec. 30, was named the most valuable player of the Ghana Premier League last month after he led the league with 17 goals.
