Collin Unlikely to Feature in Return to KC - Former Sporting Player Update

Aurelien Collin was a fixture in the Sporting Kansas City back line from the time he joined the club in 2011 until he was traded away after the 2014 season. The Frenchman made 107 appearances for Sporting in MLS play over his four seasons and was MVP of MLS Cup 2013, scoring the tying goal and what proved to be the winning PK in the shootout. After being traded to Orlando City for inaugural season, Collin was traded again, this time to the New York Red Bulls in 2015. The trade meant that went Orlando came to Children’s Mercy Park in 2016,it was after Collin had departed the club. Tomorrow when the Red Bulls visit Sporting KC, it was supposed to be Collin’s first trip back to Kansas City since the trade. Unfortunately that looks unlikely to happen as an abdominal strain that kept Collin out of action this past weekend will also keep him out of tomorrow’s game.

Here’s the rest of this week’s update.
