SEATTLE — Defender Jhon Kennedy Hurtado and forward Fredy Montero have been added Major League Soccer’s All-Star team, giving the expansion Seattle Sounders FC four All-Stars.

MLS All-Star coach Dominic Kinnear of Houston announced Monday the additions of the two Colombians to a team that already included midfielder Freddie Ljungberg and goalkeeper Kasey Keller.

The MLS All-Stars will play Everton FC of the English Premier League on July 29 in Sandy, Utah.

Montero replaces injured Columbus Crew attacker Guillermo Barros Schelotto on the All-Star team. Montero ranks second to Schelotto on the league’s scoring list with nine goals. Montero also has six assists this season.

He and Hurtado played in Colombia for Deportivo Cali before joining MLS.
