Sporting Kansas City announced in January 2020 that the club had acquired central midfielder Gadi Kinda on a one-year loan from Israeli Premier League side Beitar Jerusalem. Sporting made the loan move permanent ahead of the 2021 season. Kinda has played over 200 matches in Israel since turning professional in 2011 at age 17. He starred as one of the Israeli Premier League’s best players during the first half of the 2019-20 season.

He became a regular starter for Ashdod during the 2013-2014 campaign, notably scoring his first top-fight goal in a 3-2 defeat of Israeli giants Maccabi Haifa in September 2013. Ashdod spent the 2015-16 season in Israel’s second division, but a strong bounce-back culminated with a Liga Leumit title as Kinda earned 27 appearances and helped his team finish atop the standings. Ashdod’s promotion saw Kinda tally seven goals and seven assists over the next two and a half seasons before his transfer to Beitar Jerusalem.
Born in Ethiopia and raised in Israel, Kinda joined Beitar Jerusalem in February 2019 and started 30 of 31 appearances in all competitions. Kinda spent the first seven and a half years of his professional career at FC Ashdod. He developed as a youth in his hometown club’s academy prior to landing an top-flight debut in September 2011 as a 17-year-old.
Kinda has five caps for the senior Israeli National Team, making his debut on June 5, 2021 when he scored the final goal in a 3-1 friendly win over Montenegro. He previously represented Israel at the U-18, U-19 and U-21 levels.

Height: 5-7 Weight: 155 Birthday: 5/16/1996 Hometown: Realico, Argentina Last Club: Club Atletico Talleres (Argentina) Acquired: Signed on 8/5/2021 Sporting Kansas City signed Argentine-Italian midfielder Jose Mauri in early August 2021. Mauri, who holds dual citizenship in Argentina and Italy, boasts six seasons of top-flight experience in the Italian Serie A, where he competed for Parma, Empoli and European giants AC Milan from 2013-2019. He arrived in Kansas City after a two-year stint with Argentine Primera Division side Club Atletico Talleres. Mauri made his Sporting debut on Sept. 3, 2021 at LAFC before scoring his first goal in his second game on Sept. 11, 2021 in a 2-0 win over Chicago. A versatile central midfielder, Mauri moved from his native Argentina to Italy in 2012 to join Parma’s youth ranks and earned his senior team debut for the club in a Coppa Italia victory over Varese on Dec. 3, 2013 at age 17. He made his first Serie A appearance the following month in a 1-0 win against Udinese. Mauri enjoyed a breakthrough 2014-15
season, starting 29 of 33 Serie A matches for Parma and scoring twice, including the lone goal in a 1-0 upset win over Juventus on April 11, 2015. Mauri’s standout performances with Parma prompted AC Milan to sign the player ahead of the 2015-16 season. The 2016-17 campaign saw Mauri join Empoli on loan, where he played 14 additional Serie A matches. He returned to Milan shortly after his 21st birthday where he spent each the next two seasons. Following his spell at Milan, Mauri joined Argentine first division side Talleres in September 2019. Born and raised in Realico, Argentina, Mauri is of Italian descent and represented Italy at the U-16, U-17 and U-21 youth international levels. He featured in 2013 UEFA European Under-17 Championship qualifying and was later selected to Italy’s squad for 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifying.
