What could be the future of Crew goalkeeping
Trevor Ruszkowski-USA TODAY Sports As was recently discussed on Episode 299 of the Massive Report Podcast, Columbus Crew SC is still seeking answers for the post-Zack Steffen era of goalkeeping. Current Crew keepers Joe Bendik and Jon Kempin have considerable experience in Major League Soccer. Bendik, in particular, has played over 15,000 minutes within the league. While Kempin has seen considerably less action, he has been on an MLS roster since 2010. Ben Lundgaard is also in the Crew pipeline. The 23-year-old was the 21st selection of the 2018 MLS Super Draft and is currently on loan with the Pittsburgh Riverhounds. Given that Kempin and Lundgaard were brought to the club under a different coach and general manager, their future with the club is questionable.
