I've been looking and haven't seen anything about Kofi other than being out of contract with Houston. Also, I know that Perry Kitchen and DCU couldn't agree on terms, and he is looking to potentially go to Europe. However, he has not found a team.

fknbuflobo Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Surely some MLS team will snatch Perry Kitchen soon. Perhaps Klinnsman is pushing him toward Europe, but I do not believe so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLS rules are baffling. How is it fair, or even rational, that DC United would retain rights to Kitchen without signing him to a contract?

How is it that Zarek Valentin was in Europe for 3+ years, I believe, and yet Portland had to trade with Montreal for his MLS rights? My understanding was that Zarek was over there no longer "on loan". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player who has logged more minutes than any other in the MLS over past five seasons cannot find a job? Really? MLS rules are unique, unlike any other league anywhere. Player fulfills length of contract; plays through it. Parties fail to make deal. How then is said player restricted from signing with whomever he chooses? MLS rules are wack!

I'm not sure what Perry is expecting to find. $400k is a pretty good deal by MLS standards. Given that level of money and that DCU has his MLS rights, I'm not sure a deal is there elsewhere in MLS. I don't know enough about salaries in various European leagues to comment. Edited February 19, 2016 by Zip_ME87 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume this is still true, that Kitchen has played more MLS minutes than any other player since 2011. So, what if he is now played the 3rd or 12th most MLS minutes in the past 5 seasons? The point is that Kitchen is capable, dependable and durable, a good investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zip_ME87 Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Just read an article today that Perry is very much interested in going to Europe. Not so driven by MLS money. I can't post now from my phone but will try to post later. Edit:. http://wapo.st/1OrFPQU?tid=ss_tw article is titled about obafemi martins but scroll down and there is info about Perry.
