May 19, 2022 – Major League Soccer (MLS) – Charlotte FC News Release
CHARLOTTE – With Charlotte FC one-third of the way into their inaugural season, Charlotte FC sporting director, Zoran Krneta, analyzes the first twelve games and what’s to come for the Club.
“I think our season has gone well. I’m proud of the players. At the beginning, we said our aim for year one is to be competitive, and I think we have proved that. I think we are competitive in every single game. I don’t think anybody has beaten us soundly.
“I think our team has shown spirit, and has fought to the very last minutes. I think there are a lot of positives to take for the first 12 games. There is obviously a lot of room for improvement.
“We are addressing that, the coaching staff and myself. The front office is also now looking where else and what else we need to improve for the season with the summer window coming up and for next year.”
Krneta has said from the very beginning that they didn’t want to rush the roster building to remain flexible to add players where needed. With twelve games under their belt, Krneta and his staff have recognized the attacking midfield as an area of need. They kept one remaining designated player slot open just for this reason – to keep a slot open to bolster the squad with a high-caliber player.
“I don’t want to commit whether it will happen in the summer transfer window which is our aim, or whether it will happen in January simply because of the business of transfers and deals is unpredictable but we are looking to add an attacking midfielder as our third DP, that is our primary aim.
“You don’t know who you really have until they start playing. You don’t really know individual players what they give you or not until you see them playing week after week. So now we are getting a little bit better picture of who is who on the team, who can give us what, and how we can move forward and improve.
