Seattle Sounders vs. Los Angeles FC Leagues Cup quarterfinal: How to watch Saturday's game

Craig Waibel addressed the media following the close of the summer transfer window, where the Seattle Sounders did not make any signings for the third consecutive year. Waibel described this as the "most exhausting transfer window" he has ever experienced, where the team unsuccessfully pursued several high-profile targets despite having available salary cap space. The Sounders opted not to compromise on player quality, focusing on potential contributors rather than making moves for the sake of it. The team remains in contention for playoffs and has performed well recently, yet frustrations over the transfer inactivity persist among fans and staff alike.
