Andrea Mancini released, joins New York Cosmos

Andrea Mancini, an Italian midfielder who appeared just once with D.C. United in his first season with the club, has been released by the Black-and-Red. Mancini will now join the NASL's New York Cosmos, where he has effectively been on trial for a month (a development first reported by the This is Cosmos Country Podcast). The Cosmos have since confirmed that they have signed Mancini.

Andrea is the son of Roberto Mancini, who was the manager of Inter Milan when the younger Mancini signed with D.C. United back on March 27th.
