One topic that deserves more attention is something that Sam McDowell reported Sunday morning.
“Sporting KC looked into acquiring another striker while Erik Hurtado and Daniel Salloi have battled injuries, leaving the team thin at the position. But Salloi is closer than expected to a return, already running without pain in his ankle. Hurtado is expected to beat his initial 2-3 month prognosis after knee surgery. Sporting KC opted not to make a swift move to sacrifice the long-term.”
Emphasis mine.
Despite the lack of a true third center forward on the roster behind Krisztian Nemeth and the injured Hurtado, Sporting Kansas City will not be adding another player at this time, though that doesn’t preclude a move later in the year.
