Kansas City Wizards have achieved a major coup by agreeing to sign Mexican striker Omar Bravo.
The player will remain at Chivas until the end of Mexican Apertura season before he joins his new team for the 2011 pre-season.
Even though this move will come as a surprise for many football fans, Bravo himself is looking forward to the new challenge.
“I am very happy about joining Kansas City in 2011 and staying with Chivas through the finals of Libertadores and the Apertura,” Bravo said. “I want to win two more trophies for Chivas and then focus on bringing championships to Kansas City in Major League Soccer.
There is no doubt that Kansas have secured a major signing and club manager Peter Vermes couldn’t agree more.
“Although he won’t join us until 2011, we feel that it will be very beneficial for Omar to go through a whole season with us, beginning with the preseason. The 2011 pre-season will give Omar a great start to the year and allow us to indoctrinate him into our system. Omar’s high-pressure, attack-oriented mentality will complement our style of play extremely well.”
