Reports out of Argentina today indicate that Wizards midfielder, Santiago Hirsig is out with the Wizards. According to Quilmes Presente, Hirsig has signed on to play with Quilmes Atletico Club. Quilmes was promoted this past season to the Argentine Primera Division. Hirsig's move gives the Wizards the roster spot they needed to create with the signing of Nikos Kounenakis.
Hirsig made 27 appearances for the Wizards over the course of his time in KC, 25 of them starts for 2,155 minutes. He scored his one goal in KC's 3-2 loss last year to Seattle. He was impressive in his first few appearances showing a calming influence on the ball and a nice passing ability. In all competitions, Hirsig made 4 more starts and finished with 2,510 minutes played. This season, though, Hirsig had only made 1 45 minute appearance starting in KC's 2-1 loss to DC where he was pulled at half time.
Hirsig apparently won't be the only move, as Thad from The Back Post mentioned that confirmation of another move is coming soon as well.
