Across State Lines: Mustivar Headed to Azerbaijan

Since being waived at the end of the 2017 MLS season, former Sporting Kansas City midfielder, Soni Mustivar’s name hasn’t popped up in any real rumors about a new location for the player. That has changed though as the Haitian international has signed to continue his career in Azerbaijan. Mustivar signed on to play in the 2018/2019 season with Neftchi PFK, a club based in Baku, the Azerbaijan capital. Neftchi is currently in 5th place in the Azerbaijan Premier League this season as the league is winding down.

Elsewhere, former Sporting KC draft pick, Pat Healey and the Baltimore Blast won their third straight championship as the Blast went on the road and defeated the Monterrey Flash 4-3 in the final. Healey recorded to assists for the Blast as they took home the championship.
