Most of us have been quietly, and painfully, waiting for the day when Barcelona shows up at

along those lines. In fact, AANP may have invented that just now.

another defeat, or a two-goal lead thrown away late on, or whatever.

The press release says "the central midfielder will be eligible to join the Union upon receiving
his P-1 Visa and International Transfer Certificate. Per MLS and Club policy, terms of the
agreements were not disclosed.
