With no Rubio, Salloi or Russell, Who Plays Forward for Sporting KC?
A trio of international call-ups for Sporting Kansas City suddenly makes the game against Orlando City SC a lot more sketchy than it otherwise would have been. First, Daniel Salloi got a second call-up to the full Hungarian National Team after turning down the first call-up. Oddly, that first call-up was turned down because of a pending Green Card, though nothing has come through that front since. Second, Johnny Russell got the call to represent Scotland. And finally, in the most surprising call-up, Diego Rubio makes his first return to represent Chile after a seven year absence.
