As the stand-alone match in the early window of MLS play on Saturday, FC Cincinnati had mounted a come-from-behind surge in the second half and was looking to secure a third home win of the season. But an unfortunate, mistimed clearance attempt derailed that.

The highly touted striker, Togo international, and the newest member of FC Cincinnati made his way across the pond on Wednesday to attend MLS Media Day in Miami, Florida.

The New Year in Cincy has kicked off with a blanket of snow covering the city. A polar vortex has dumped a near Canadian level of snow on the Queen City, making it funny to imagine FC Cincinnati kicking off at TQL Stadium in just 47 days. But it’s true. With the New Year officially rung in and The Orange and Blue set to report for preseason in about a week's time, the 2025 MLS season is right around the corner despite the fresh powder.

Chris Albright promised change, and change arrived quickly. Before a week had elapsed since the FC Cincinnati General Manager came to the dais at Mercy Health Training Center and said the roster would change, he finalized a deal with the Colorado Rapids to send center backs Chidozie Awaziem and Ian Murphy to the Rocky Mountains in exchange for One Million Dollars in General Allocation Money (GAM).

Nick Hagglund was the only player remaining on the 2024 roster who was out of contract, and did not have an option for 2025 headed into the offseason. Alec Kann was another player like that at the start of 2024, but his contract extension for 2025 made it so Hagglund was the lone ‘out of contract’ player. “I mean, they've said that I'm going to be back,” Hagglund said in his exit interview last month.
