The rumors have come true as FC Dallas and the Vancouver Whitecaps have completed a trade today. FC Dallas has agreed to trade Blas Perez for midfielder Mauro Rosales.
Perez had been rumored to join Vancouver but Dallas was holding his MLS player rights. Originally FCD wanted $50,000 in allocation money for Perez but was able to work out a deal to get Rosales in return instead after the Whitecaps parted ways with the veteran midfielder this offseason.
Rosales now joins a pretty solid Dallas midfield that includes the likes of Mauro Diaz, Fabian Castillo and Michael Barrios.
