I have a few transfer morsels that I picked up to share before I chill out and watch Traitor. I hope it's good, I love Don Cheadle!
- Expect Lee Nguyen to be presented by Vietnamese side Hoàng Anh Gia Lai next weekend, give or take a couple days. The MLS suitor has dropped out.
- Oguchi Onyewu agent Lyle Yorks told me it was "99% that he'd sign a pre-contract to start with his new club in summer." He also said he expected his client to decide on a destination during January.
Now, let's see who else Standard keeps for that UEFA Cup run.
- Wake Forest striker Marcus Tracy (pictured above) will indeed be unveiled as an Aalborg player in the middle of next week. I'd been trying to keep this a secret all week for a full scoop, but a Danish scribe got wind before I could get confirmation. I have that now.
Today, Marcus is in my hometown of St. Louis to pick up the Hermann Trophy, so congrats on both fronts!
- Luis Arroyave gets Fire exec Frank Klopas to shoot down Marco Pappa departure talk over at the Red Card.
- As presumed elsewhere, Duke forward Mike Grella is weighing interest from overseas. He does hold a European passport, by the way.
- Dartmouth keeper Sean Milligan has admitted he has a European trial scheduled for after the MLS Combine.
- Marca says Everton's Jozy Altidore approach was actually for a six-month loan.
- This article says Jared Borgetti has three MLS suitors, not two. Chivas USA is again specifically mentioned, but they still have that matter of trading to get a Designated Player spot back from New York. Meanwhile, the Mexico star has been left in limbo by Tigre's MIA executives. Hmmm.
- Expect a Sal Zizzo loan to happen before long, but it's still unclear whether the Hannover 96 winger will make the short trip to Hansa Rostock or head abroad. I still have my fingers crossed for the Netherlands, though I'm not certain that is still an option.

traitor was better then expected.
Excellent! I'm a HUGE Don Cheadle fan and Guy Pearce is cool as well.
Traitor...doesn't that feature a recent Serbian national team convert......I kid I kid!
Greg,
Any idea on what MLS's offer was to Tracy. Would be curious to see how hefty it was. Thanks.
George, I have no personal dirt on that, but the word going around is that is well beyond what the Generation adidas guys will get.
