St. Louis CITY SC Sporting Director Corey Wray joins Jen Siess Sports on a Sunday Morning to discuss the club’s approach to the transfer window and staying committed to its long-term roster-building process despite outside pressure.
Wray breaks down what Rafael Navarro brings as a Designated Player striker, including his scoring ability, chance creation, pressing and work rate. He also discusses the different attacking dimension provided by 6-foot-4 forward Damion Downs, along with midfielder Charles-Émile Brunet’s ability to progress the ball, play under pressure and provide positional versatility.
Wray also explains CITY SC’s broader squad-building philosophy, with an emphasis on constructing a younger and faster attacking core that can make an immediate impact while continuing to develop over the next several seasons.
