NEW YORK - Rumors are circulating that former star club New York City FC are chasing aging A.F.C. Richmond star midfielder Roy Kent.

“We feel that Roy would offer us a lot of wisdom and speed in the midfield,” stated NYCFC director of transfer strategy Jimmy Ansel.

Sources indicate that the Hartford and New York based club are not concerned about the injury Kent sustained at the end of the Richmond season as they claim, “Roy’s a tough fell and he will be just fine. We are counting on him to really ad a pop through the midfield.”

With NYCFC hoping to build off their former legacy of Chelsea legends with the success of Frank Lampard, the strong signs are there that they will turn their entire 2021 strategy to the acquisition of the midfield talisman.

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as Kent rejects NYCFC for being, “beneath his level, especially now.”
