Columbus Crew trying to trade striker before deadline

SI.com’s Grant Wahl reported Tuesday that MLS club, Columbus Crew, are looking to trade striker Kei Kamara before Wednesday’s transfer deadline.

The idea of trading Kamara comes after Saturday’s 4-4 draw to the Montreal Impact, in which Kamara had a dispute with teammate Fredrico Higuain over taking a penalty kick. Kamara, who was a goal away from earning his first career hat-trick, wanted to take the spot kick. But Higuain stepped up and demanded the ball. The two argued for a minute about who would be taking the kick, which resulted in Impact players and the referee urging the players to hurry up.
