Adrian Serioux is going to home to Toronto and Dallas will receive a future draft pick and allocation money.
Serioux’s time in Dallas may be most remembered for his monster throw-ins and for his “Welcome to MLS” tackle on Becks. I met him once myself after a game in D, the guy could not have been nicer.
Just when you think Bradenton, Florida is the safe and cheap stop for MLS pre - season, you get this story coming across the wire. Between this, subduing crazy’s on an airplane and the press the Beckham situation’s getting, Major League Soccer is on some next level PR.

From the Seattle Times:
Seattle Sounders FC made its first-ever draft pick Thursday morning, selecting University of Akron forward Steve Zakuani with the first overall pick of the 2009 Major League Soccer SuperDraft in St. Louis.
Zakuani, a 20-year-old under classmen who signed an MLS contract before his college eligibility was complete, was born in the Congo in Central Africa before moving to England at age 4. He played for the Arsenal youth team there before an ACL injury in 2003 ended his opportunity to advance through that club’s system. He landed in Akron when a scout noticed him.Steve Zakuani went to the Seattle Sounders FC first overall
