The MLS secondary transfer window opens July 10.
Atlanta United manager Gerardo Martino made it seem Tuesday that the team may not be too active.
“There’s nothing special that we’ve asked from the directors, but we have to be attentive in the case something does arise all of a sudden, we have to be ready to add a piece to help our team,” he said.
If the team does try to sign a player, it would have to release another because each of its 30 roster spots are occupied. Though it is a business, and the team is pushing for a playoff spot as the halfway points nears, it would seem odd to release players who were specifically signed, traded for or targeted in the expansion draft for the team’s inaugural season.
Martino did agree, with a laugh, that adding more tall players would be nice.
The team recently welcomed goalkeeper Brad Guzan , but he can't play with the team until the window opens.
Atlanta United (6-6-3) will play at D.C. United on Wednesday .
