Quakes owner Lewis Wolff confirmed the pending deal to Sports Business Journal that is expected to be worth between $2 and $3 million.

“It’s a done deal,” Wolff said. “It will help us as we continue to grow.”

Throw in the efforts of General Manager John Doyle and Head Coach Frank Yallop heading over to England to meet up with their partner club Tottenham Hotspur for training sessions and coaching methods, Yallop’s three game coaching stint with the Generation Adidas crew that will play West Ham Reserves (Monday, Dec. 8th), Chelsea Reserves (Wednesday, Dec 10th) and Aston Villa Reserves (Thursday, Dec.11th), and you’ve got a great start to the Earthquakes off – season strengthening plan.
