    and Colorado........and RSL, and DC United........... CF Montreal, Nashville........

    Plus Philly isn't shopping in the Greek Super League. It's strictly Norway, Denmark, Uruguay and Venezuela for them!

    To reiterate a word @PaulTenorio and I used: Longshot.

    More advanced discussions are over Andre Luiz and Yann Gboho, two players likely to cost $18-20m each.

    SKC looking to make good on promise of more investment/ambition this summer.




    SKC looking to spend over $40M in transfer fees plus whatever salary Salah demands if he comes to MLS? That would be a new bar set specially coming from a "small market" team.

    I don't know tbh. I doubt it. The other guy you posted pretended to be Romano but his name was Rumanos. It happens. Don't take it to heart. Wasn't trying to make fun of you. That's why I said we all get fooled sometimes.

    IF Sporting KC, and it's a HUGE IF, can get one or more these over the line it would certainly mark a paradigm shift in MLS.

    I am very surprised that San Diego FC isn't leading the line to sign Mo Salah though.

    A while back when CCC was going on I remember seeing a tweet saying he wasn't in their plans for how they want to build a team.

    I'm surprised LA Galaxy with an open DP spot isn't the one working on getting Salah. I guess they have someone else in mind.

    Promises made will be promises kept. Lots of conversations happening. One way or another, this team will be significantly better in the second half, much better by the sprint season.

    I was thinking the same thing but the got away from name players and went with players in their prime which resulted in winning the Cup. Puig, Pec & Paintsil were all under 26 when they signed with the Galaxy.

    The new SKC owner is the son of Egyptian immigrants. Signing Mo Salah tracks pretty well with that bit of context.

    Low key I like these types of moves. Move domestic players around where they'll get playing time or where someone else might need them more than their current team.

    No and don't tell me that is what 7-13 will be about. After looking it up, DC happened last year but the announcement was July 16, 2025. I think you just came across what they will be announcing tomorrow. The Union are one of the teams.

    I saw somewhere where a guy mentioned everyone is getting themselves all worked up over the announcement that next years All Star Game is going to be played in Miami.

    Sounds about right to me.

    Actually it's not even that good. The big announcement is they are going to market MLS more. That's it, some celebrities, a couple feel good stories and some commercials on local tv.
