Sporting Kansas City's most recent signing made headlines earlier this month, signing a Homegrown deal at just 15 years of age.
That would be Sporting KC Academy product and Shawnee native Tyler Freeman, who officially joined his hometown club on Oct. 2 after putting pen to paper at Pinnacle.
Freeman, the second-youngest player in club history, will officially be added to Sporting KC's roster ahead of the 2019 season. Until then, the 15-year-old will continue to prepare with plenty of excitement knowing he has the chance to represent the club he fell in love with as a little kid.
