Lopez, Mina Updates

[updated with Mina]

Two weeks after the Insider broke the story, the Argentine media is finally catching up to Kansas City's pursuit of former Albiceleste star Claudio Lopez.

The sides have been ironing out the final details the past week and, barring a last-minute problem, an announcement is expected in the coming days.

Does Lopez have anything left to offer the Wizards? Do you agree with MLS's aggressive pursuit of Argentine players in recent years? Now that DCU has acquired a second designated player slot, might we see Juan Sebastian Veron in a black kit after all?

As we reported first on Friday afternoon, the Dallas-Mina negotiations have indeed taken a turn for the worst. I can tell you that Houston and Colorado were particularly interested in trading for the Ecuadoran forward's MLS rights.
