Blaise Nkufo has been relased by the Seattle Sounders according to a team issued press release just hours befor the start of the season.
It has been a turbulent day for the Swiss Designated Player, who has effectively gone from the starting line-up to off the club. The Seattle Times reported earlier on Tuesday that Nkufo wouild not start in the Sounders match against the LA Galaxy tonight after an apparent incident in training. Nkufo talled five goals in 11 appearances for Seattle in his first and only season with the club in 2011.
Nkufo joined the Sounders after an illustrious career with FC Twente and a stint with Switzerland's national team at the World Cup. The terms of the Swiss striker's release are currently being discussed by Major League Soccer and the Seattle Sounders as well as the player's representatives.
