Sporting KC and Peter Vermes decided to "phone a friend" as they traded with the Colorado Rapids to bring Benny Feilhaber back to Kansas City at the deadline of the MLS primary transfer window.
After joining the Rapids in free agency in the offseason after a season at LAFC, Feilhaber now moves on to Sporting KC just 10 games into his contract. Nobody can deny that the Rapids have had a difficult start to the year, still winless, including eight losses. Their run of form to start the season saw Anthony Hudson fired and assistant coach and former player Conor Casey take over.
