Sounders General Manager Adrian Hanauer confirmed the deal when talking to Prost Amerika partner La Raza del nuestronoroeste.com.

"We are very excited to bring Miguel to Seattle. Miguel has blazing speed, makes decisive runs, he has good technique and strikes the ball well with both feet. At the same time, he is only 18 years old, and we will bring him along slowly. We need to find out how he fits in with our group, and hopefully over time, he can contribute."

Short term peak?

Do you know anything about this guy? Is he likely to compete for a spot? Some 18 year-olds could, many could not. What’s the word?

Wow, now there are really few spots left on the roster for the trialists left in camp.

Also, I guess this sheds some light on one reason the Sounders didn’t bite on Gil (or at least got out-bid by RSL). Two very young players might have been one too many.

I think that we need to hope the new CBA adds a couple of roster spots…. it looks like we have more good players in camp then we have space for especially with Montano coming in next weekish.
