The young Gil signs with MLS and will be allocated via a weighted lottery. For us Sounders fans it sometimes sucks to have won so many last year.

"His family would like to see him on the West Coast, but we'll see where he's going to be," Gartlan said. "He's open to anything."

As a Generation adidas signing, Gil will not count against the salary cap or senior roster.

For his sake it would probably be best for him to be in Seattle, with the Galaxy, or with the Dynamo as those coaches have proven records with youth players. They are also 3 of the least likely teams to get him.
