Ryan Smith to Atlas?

Today yet another Sporting Kc transfer rumor was sparked. However, this time the rumors were about one of our players moving to another team. This is something that is somewhat rare for an MLS side, especially if their name starts with a Sporting and ends with a Kc.

Nevertheless, the rumors started to come about after Chicago Fire forward Gaston Puerari was transferred to Mexican side Atlas for an undisclosed fee. Despite signing Puerari, this article shows that Atlas is also interested in Sporting Kc winger Ryan Smith.

The rumors were only hyped up when people on twitter, (specifically @FootyChronicles),  discovered that Ryan Smith had deleted his Twitter account, this of course could mean nothing, maybe he was fed up with negative comments or something along those lines, but the whole twitter ordeal just added to the suspicion that Ryan Smith was set to leave Sporting.

 However, all rumors were effectively squashed when Thad Bell(@TheBackpost) tweeted that the rumors were not true. (Thad has somewhat of an exclusive insight with the Sporting Kc staff, so his info can be trusted)  

So if the rumors were true, would Ryan Smith seriously leave us?

State your opinion down in the comments or on the poll to the right.
