Sporting KC Announce Roster Moves Including Espinoza, Besler and 13 Others

Sporting Kansas City announced decisions on the 15 players today less than a week after they were eliminated from the 2020 MLS Cup Playoffs.

The club picked up the 2021 options on Johnny Russell, Amadou Dia, Felipe Hernandez and Graham Smith. They also list Gadi Kinda, which confirms the previous rumor that they bought his loan deal out and he’s been made a permanent member of the team. Not listed in the article from SKC as having their options picked up are Gianluca Busio and Daniel Salloi, though they are listed as already being on the roster so it’s possible those options were picked up at a previous date.
