Sporting Kansas City head coach Peter Vermes has said this offseason is about working to get two quality players at each position ahead of the 2019 season that will see them return to the CONCACAF Champions League. The expectation of where they need to add those quality players could be changing in the future though, as it was reported today that defender, Ike Opara, has requested that the team consider trading him.
Vermes has said that he’s not shopping anyone on the roster at the moment, but Vermes has always shown if the right deal comes along he’s not adverse to trading away a player that fans may see as a key piece to the team.
