Across State Lines: Mauri Signs in Argentina

One of the early disappointments in what turned into a season of many disappointments for Sporting KC was the play and quick release of former KC midfielder, Jose Mauri after a 27 minute substitute appearance in the season opener in Atlanta. Mauri entered the game in the 50th minute for Oriol Rosell, but was then subbed back out in the 77th minute for Marinos Tzionis. In the weeks after the game, news came out that Kansas City was going to be looking to get out of the contract with Mauri. About six weeks after the season opening loss to Atlanta United, KC officially announced that they had agreed to mutually terminate Mauri’s contract.

Since then, Mauri has been linked with a move back to Italy, mostly with Serie B teams but nothing has come of that. Finally this week it was announced that Mauri will be returning to Argentina as he has signed with Club Atletico Sarmiento in the Argentine Primera Division, the country’s top division. Mauri had been playing with CA Talleres in Argentina before signing with Kansas City.

Also this week, former Kansas City player, Tyler Pasher has returned to the USL Championship after a couple year stint back in MLS. Pasher has signed with the Birmingham Legion ahead of the 2023 season.
