The second stage of the 2014 MLS Re-Entry Draft will be held via teleconference Thursday afternoon at 2pm CT.
As expected, stage one last Friday saw minimal activity with only three players selected.
The second stage typically sees more action than the first as clubs are able to negotiate a new salary number with players they select instead of having to pick up a player’s option for the following year.
For reference, 14 players total have been selected in the first phase of the Re-Entry process since it began in 2010, compared to 43 players selected in the second phase.
The list of six players that appeared for the Fire in 2014 and were Re-Entry eligible last week hasn’t changed with Patrick Ianni, Hunter Jumper, Steven Kinney, Sanna Nyassi, Gonzalo Segares and Bakary Soumare all available for selection Thursday.
The Fire will again pick fourth overall on Thursday. See below the list of all available players:
