Sporting Kansas City's loan shows another of the benefits of not only having a USL affiliate, but having them at the same training ground.
Sporting Kansas City announced they were loaning Spanish midfielder Jordi Quintilla down to the Swope Park Rangers yesterday. This shows another of the many benefits of Sporting KC having their own USL affiliate and it being in Kansas City.
"It's good for Jordi," Swope Park manager Marc Dos Santos explained. "If you think about last year when a player didn't travel because he wasn't going to be in the eighteen, he would be training for a week without the first team.
