With but a few scant hours remaining until our match against Sporting KC kicks off, I thought it might be prudent to briefly preview this potentially scintillating affair by rambling a bit about it. I know, my reasoning might be off a bit…
Well, that was surprising, wasn’t it? Merely hours after I’d predicted that we’d make no new signings, we … made two new signings. Two! Remarkable, isn’t it. Both signings represent something a bit different about our development as a…
Real Salt Lake added two to its roster on deadline day: Yordany Alvarez, a midfielder who defected from Cuba in 2008, joins from Orlando City following their 2011 USL Pro championship, and Nico Muniz, a homegrown prospect from the RSL-AZ…
