RSL pulls back the curtain on MLS Draft with behind-the-scenes video
It’s not every day that you get to hear behind-the-scenes conversations from any club at the MLS Draft. This video from Real Salt Lake pulls back the curtains, and we can finally get to see what it’s like at the table.
In the video, you can see:
The RSL coaching staff — including Mike Petke — evaluating players during the MLS Combine
Multiple clubs trying to negotiate with RSL for their first-round draft pick, including FC Dallas, who offered draft picks
The staff deciding whether or not they’d accept said negotiations, including weighing allocation money offers of $50,000 and $70,000
