Crewture -- "Crew to Sign Chilean Defensive Midfielder Claudio Maldonado?"
7/8/09
Sounds as though the Crew are very interested in possibly signing 29-year old Caludio Maldonado, the captain of Chile's national team. The thought is that he would be a great step-in in the middle of the park for the injured Adam Moffat and would be an amazing pairing with Brian Carroll.
Considering how much trouble the Crew has had on offense as of late, this news is pretty surprising, especially considering we would basically be replacing an talented extra midfielder for another talanted midfielder. Regardless though, he would be a great get. I'd still like to see them go after a striker like Omar Cummings (Colorado).
