Just came back from a week in Buenos Aires and Mar del Plata, Argentina, where I managed to stop eating steak long enough to read a few papers every day (and see River-Independiente in Mardel Wednesday night, with two outstanding goals by Independiente's impressive 17-year-old Sergio Aguero, who the press was saying could be the new Messi -- which I guess is only a step or two away from being the new Adu, given how young Messi is).
Since they're in between futbol seasons right now, Clarin was running a daily ticker of transfer rumors, including who was leaving, who was signing, who had interest from other clubs, etc. No mention of United -- or any other MLS clubs -- hunting any players from any team. If we're planning to continue our Argentine signing streak, it might not happen in time for the start of the new season here. Just thought I'd pass the info along.
