"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) \u2014 Sporting Kansas City parted ways with forward Claudio Bieler on Tuesday after two seasons.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bieler joined the franchise as a Designated Player and was the team's top scorer in its MLS Cup-winning 2013 with 10 goals in the MLS regular season. He wound up with 16 goals and five assists in 54 appearances across all competitions over the past two seasons.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of Bieler's highlights came last season, when he scored twice in a 3-0 victory over Real Esteli in the CONCACAF Champions League. He also had two goals during the MLS regular season.\r\n\r\n\r\n\t&lt;strong&gt;MORE: Keep track of MLS' major offseason moves&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\"Claudio's service here was a huge help, especially during our run to MLS Cup in 2013,\" Sporting KC manager Peter Vermes said. \"He was a professional since the moment he arrived, and we are appreciative of his time in Kansas City. We wish him all the best.\"\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The move leaves Sporting KC with a vacant international roster and DP spot.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
