Shocking news came out of Chicago as the Fire waived their projected starting goalkeeper Jon Busch.
Busch, widely regarded as one of the best in the business, is known for his work on and off the field. Busch was always seen as a classy individual and became a fan favorite at every stop. Jon is still loved by Crew fans even though he has been gone for several years.
This is quite a shock to all involved.We last saw him at the NSCAA Convention in January. He was excited about the upcoming season and the opportunity to play for a new coach.
“We are excited to get another season underway,” Busch commented.
When asked about the Fire’s new head coach, Busch replied, “He wants to play an attractive style of soccer. He has a heck of a resume. He has been there and done it as a coach and a player.”
It just so happens that another coach will now have the pleasure of working with Busch. It won’t take Jon long to find work since he is such an asset in goal and in the community. This difficult decision may be one that the Fire come to regret.
