Paulo Nagamura Out as Sporting KC II Coach
Kansas City lost it’s second soccer coach of the day. After the KC Current announced they were moving Huw Williams to another position on the staff and he’d no longer be the head coach, Sporting KC II joined them in announcing 2022 will bring a new coach to Sporting Kansas City’s second team.
The move seems to be a mutual agreement and comes on the heels of Nagamura reportedly missing out on the Chicago Fire job. The team said, “Paulo Nagamura has ended his tenure as the club’s head coach to pursue other professional opportunities.” Obviously, Nagamura had a somewhat poor record with SKC II, but also he was tasked less with winning and more with developing young talent.
