    WHAT HAPPENED

    Prior to Minnesota United’s clash against the Houston Dynamo, Minnesota forward Kelvin Yeboah met with a few fans outside the team’s hotel. There, while signing autographs, a fan proposed a trade where he would give his Yeboah 1-of-1 MLS trading card for a game-worn kit. The ultra-rare collectible caught the Ghanaian striker's attention, and he agreed to the deal. Despite the loss to the Dynamo, Yeboah found the fan and handed over his shirt.
