Peter Vermes, Sporting Kansas City Part Ways After 16 Years

Peter Vermes and Sporting Kansas City have parted ways after 16 years as manager. Vermes led SKC to four major championships and 11 playoff appearances, eight of them consecutively between 2011 and 2018.

SKC has appointed Kerry Zavagnin as interim manager. 

"It would be hard to list all of the people I want to thank after 20 seasons in managerial positions at Sporting Kansas City," Vermes said.

"I am thankful to everyone, especially ownership for giving me the opportunity of being a steward of this club for the past two decades. I wish the club nothing but the best in the future."
