Blue Notes: Sporting KC Trade, New Preseason Trialist, More FIFA Bribes

Another day, another handful of moves around Kansas City soccer. Let’s get to it!

SKC Make a Trade

Sporting Kansas City apparently wanted to assure us their international roster spots are more than fine in a “peak MLS” style trade. Sporting KC have sent a 2023 international spot to the Columbus Crew in exchange for $190,000 in General Allocation Money (GAM). If you are unfamiliar with GAM, the five-second version is it’s money that can be used to buy down salary budget charges of players since teams only get $5,210,000 to allocate after all GAM/TAM credits in 2023.
