Sporting KC’s Biggest Areas of Need After the Roster Announcements

On Tuesday, Sporting Kansas City became one of the last teams in the league to announce their roster moves following the 2022 season. As Peter Vermes told us before the offseason kicked into high gear, he didn’t think the roster needed a “large overhaul” and his moves so far align with that.

As of now, 23 players are under contract for 2023, with one new signing (midfielder Nemanja Radoja) and 22 returning players. The team is also actively negotiating with Graham Zusi, Roger Espinoza and Andreu Fontas. If all three of them return, 26 of the 30 roster spots will be filled.
