According to Direct TV Ecuador’s Jose Carlos Crespo, D.C. United is interested in CS Emelec and Ecuador national team winger Joao Rojas. According to Crespo, United and an unnamed first division side from Switzerland have made offers for the 24-year-old Rojas, and according to a separate report from Adrian Guillen, the latter team is apparently in Ecuador to attempt to close the deal.
Rojas, who per Transfermarkt is in the final year of his contract with Emelec, scored 10 goals and assisted on 7 more in 28 games (23 starts) this season and has scored 22 across 116 total appearances in the five seasons he has been with El Bombillo.
