Minnesota United: 11-player exodus demands busy offseason

On Contract Deadline Day on Monday, Minnesota United got rid of 11 players: Marc Burch, Matt Lampson, Ibson, Fernando Bob, Jerome Thiesson, Collen Warner, Bertrand Owundi Eko’o, Frantz Pangop, Alex Kapp, Harrison Heath and Johan Venegas.

With only 16 players remaining on the roster, this is significant turnover. Minnesota United’s front office will have to make a lot of moves this winter to even be roster compliant.

So, what does all this turnover mean for this upcoming transfer window?

Well, these moves immediately make Minnesota United very thin in central midfield, as only Rasmus Schuller and Collin Martin remain as the Loons’ central midfielders.
