The first addition to Sporting Kansas City’s roster this offseason will be familiar to MLS.
Sporting KC agreed to a one-year contract with free agent Rodney Wallace, who has played with three teams in the league since his arrival in 2009, most recently via a two-year stint with New York City FC.
Wallace plays on the left side of the field, either a left back position, in the midfield or as a left wing. He visited Kansas City on Friday with the intention of shopping his services, but he left with a final decision.
“There are a lot of key aspects here to winning — from the players and staff to the facilities and fans,” Wallace said in a statement provided by the team.
