MLS clubs brace for frantic deadline week with Sporting KC leading spending push

The club has already made a club-record signing and is in advanced talks for a Swedish forward, while also exploring a blockbuster move for an NYCFC player. Colorado Rapids are also expected to be active as teams scramble to finalize rosters.
