D.C. United sign Danny Allsopp. He last played for Al Rayyan in Qatar. http://voices.washingtonpost.com/soccerinsider/2010/01/dc_united_signs_australian_str.html
wait.. I thought Ricardo Clark was supposed to go to Livorno? or is he leaving in the summer transfer window?
That move was only announced by Livorno's Boss last year, never confirmed by Houston, Clark or his Agent and has since been scuttled, looks like he is going on trial with Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt.
According to American sources it's not really a trial. He's going for a physical and to sign on the bottom line. http://www.noshortcorners.com/ Clark is expected to sign with the club, pending a medical exam tomorrow. He will sign on through the end of the season, with a club option for either one or two more seasons. I will file a proper report at S365 shortly. That same source indicates Stuart Holden is on his way to Braga in Portugal, but that's still in the "gossip" phase.
Same thing being reported in Germany as well, looks like he will be signed shortly. BTW: the clip of him kicking "Pescadito" has raised awareness of Houston and FC Dallas quite a bit and is even featured as a link on this report: http://www.hr-online.de/website/rubriken/sport/index.jsp?rubrik=7454&key=standard_document_38588751
Ricardo Clark signs a short-term contract (with option to extend at end of season) with Eintracht Frankfurt. http://www.kicker.de/news/fussball/bundesliga/startseite/519809/artikel_Skibbe-findet-Clark-gut.html

According to Greg Seltzer............. http://www.noshortcorners.com/ The Holden-to-Braga report is full-on hokum. I do not know where the UK scribes get this stuff. I've spoken to the club, who have already made their full allotment of five winter moves (league rules). In a word, Braga says it's 'impossible'.
http://www.wspolczesna.pl/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100119/SPORT02/73679984 Krzysztof Król został wypożyczony do Chicago Fire. A 24 year old left back to replace our loss of Gonzalo Segares.
This guy was absolutely amazing in the 2007 Gold Cup. If he's anything close to that now, he's a steal.
Ives also has KC as signed Pablo Escobar from Deportivo Cali on a loan deal. http://www.soccerbyives.net/soccer_...-kcs-big-day-chicagos-additions-and-more.html
I might've just plucked that loan deal out of thin air. MLS seems to loan everyone from Deportivo Cali these days. REAL signings they are!
