The Colorado Rapids have sold their star player, Djordje Mihailovic, to Toronto FC in a shocking midseason move. While reshuffling their back line this transfer window, the Rapids attack has a lot to figure out after losing one of their best offensive weapons ever. What can we expect from the new-look Rapids starting with tonight’s matchup in Leagues Cup against Cruz Azul? We’re joined by Kevin Egan, who’ll be on the broadcast for Apple TV tonight, on what he’s seen from Colorado and how shocked he was by the Mihailovic transfer. We’ve got a new Denver Summit FC signing and a whole lot more to get into from around the MLS. 📬 Denver sports in your inbox: https://thednvr.com/newsletter An ALLCITY Network Production PARTY WITH US: https://thednvr.com/events ALL THINGS DNVR: https://linktr.ee/dnvrsports BALL-KNOWER BONUS/Merch: https://promotion.allcitynetwork.com/promotions/store.allcitynetwork/7d48d294-4260-4bac-aca1-9a18eef8ca78 SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/DNVR_Sports WWE at the DNVR Bar: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/wwe-summerslamwatch-party-tickets-1517484851039?aff=oddtdtcreator Raising Cane’s Rooftop Fridays: https://thednvr.com/event/friday-rooftop-club-at-coors-field-presented-by-raising-canes/ Cake Mortgage: Get started on your Cake Mortgage home loan today at https://start-nonqm-dnvr-sports.cakehome.com/ First Bank: So, if you're ready for better banking and the chance to earn a little extra, head to efirstbank.com/bonus.
