????? to the Galaxy

This morning word hit the net that The L.A. Galaxy are giving up Alan Gordon to Chivas U.S.A. for some $$$. Earlier this week The Galaxy announced the Retirement of former #USMNT Clint Mathis. Yesterday, we heard about the signing of GK Brian perk and speculation that Saunders is on his way out. But, out of all these pieces of news, the next is the most important. Landon Donovan phoned in to KIIS 102.7 yesterday morning to promote the upcoming match vs. Real Madrid, but before it ended he made a comment a lot of people over looked. Donovan, when asked about his future with LA replied, “I'll see what happens as it comes around. For now it's still pretty preliminary, but I would guess at some point soon it'll be more realistic." You can make what you want of that but I believe it’s pretty clear.

So, The Galaxy have not only made cap room, but also some roster space. The one thing I believe is clear is that someone is on his way in. But who? No one really knows. The only rumored trade to The Galaxy has been about Ronaldinho. Now, with that in mind lets take a look at what most are considering a non-related story. Apparently, AC Milan has accepted an offer of €8m from Brazilian club Palmeiras for “not on the market” Ronaldinho. What you might not have heard is that The Galaxy have made a new offer to Milan for the same amount. What I believe adds to the legitimacy of this story is lack of a contract extention between Milan and Dinho, when negotiations were going “so well” last week. Ronaldinho to The Galaxy? Probably not, but if he’s not heading to LA, who is? Let us know what you think. @Trunksra
