KANSAS CITY – The Kansas City Current have executed a trade with the Orlando Pride for an international roster spot in 2024. In exchange, the Pride will receive midfielder Morgan Gautrat and $50,000 in allocation funds.


Gautrat signed with the Current prior to the 2023 season after playing six years with the Chicago Red Stars with a short break to play for Olympique Lyonnais in France.
