A feeling of great comfort has suddenly turned with the season-ending injury of Felipe Gutierrez. The Sporting KC midfield could be sent into a scramble.
Sporting Kansas City announced Tuesday afternoon that star midfielder Felipe Gutierrez will be out for the next seven-nine months after undergoing successful surgery to repair a cartilage defect in his knee. With this season-ending injury, more opportunities could open up for virtually unknown players like Wan Kuzain, Felipe Hernandez, and Cameron Duke.
