On the same day that FC Dallas released a defender, they add one. FCD has singed Colombian left
back Jair Benitez. He has been working with the first team in training since he arrived on
Monday. To make room for Benitez on the 24-man roster, FCD waived Michael Dello-Russo.
As we expected...now it can be told:

Montero did not make a statement during the investigation. In a statement issued through the team
Tuesday, he said: "I am excited to return my complete attention to scoring goals for the people of
Seattle and making the Sounders FC a very successful club.
Excellent US soccer journalist, Andrea Canales has a great interview with the Seattle Sounders FC
star in which he reveals the reason he decided to come to MLS. Here is an excerpt:
The 21-year-old Colombian striker, on loan from Deportivo Cali, has been an early revelation for

Now this is interesting. In one of the most epic games of "telephone" this blog is likely to see,
Jose Romero's Sounders FC Blog is reporting that Colombian site Enlajugada is saying that Fredy
Montero is no longer on loan and is now MLS property and TOR is now passing the savings on to you.
It had been over 12 years since Anthony D'Avila last scored a goal in Colombian football. His goal
against Pereira on February 2, 1997 was thought by many to be the last one of his career at least
in his native Colombia. With seconds remaining between América and Santa Fe, the former Colombian
international did what came instinctively during his career.
Today, FC Dallas made their second move of the transfer window by signing Jair Benitez from
Deportivo Cali on loan for the rest of the season. Benitez is a 30 year old Columbian left fullback
with good speed and average ball handling skills. To make room for him in the 24 man roster, FC

su selección, la colombiana.
