On Tuesday, Sporting Kansas City did something that many fans and pundits thought would never happen. They spent massively on a transfer fee to acquire a Designated Player striker. Alan Pulido will join the club come January and will line up in the middle of the park at CF on opening day 2020.
The fee for Pulido is not only a big move for Sporting KC but a big move for the league overall. His reported transfer fee is one of the highest ever paid to bring a player to MLS.
