KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Sporting Kansas City manager and technical director Peter Vermes has signed a contract extension that could keep him with the Major League Soccer club through the 2023 season.
Sporting KC announced the deal in a statement Monday. Financial terms were not disclosed.
A native of Willingboro, Vermes played for the club before taking it over in 2009. He guided it to three U.S. Open Cup titles — beating the Union in the 2015 final in Chester — and the MLS Cup in 2013. The longest-tenured manager in MLS, Vermes also is the sixth-winningest coach in league history with a 150-108-86 record in all competitions.
