Alvaro Saborio says goodbye to D.C. United

We’ve all known for quite some time that Alvaro Saborio’s time playing for D.C. United was up once the Montreal Impact completed their 90 minute ambush of the Black-and-Red a couple weeks ago. There have been persistent rumors that Sabo’s old club, Deportivo Saprissa, has been sniffing around with a free transfer in mind. Meanwhile, Steve Goff’s most recent piece for The Washington Post declared Saborio’s departure from DC a done deal.

Saborio himself had been mum, but yesterday he tweeted out a goodbye message:

Quiero anunciar que no seguiré formando parte del @dcunited, gracias a todos los aficionados de este club, bonitos dos años pase aquí!
