According to a report from broadcaster Glenn Davis, the Houston Dynamo are finalizing the signing of free agent right back Franco Escobar. MLS insider Tom Bogert has also confirmed the signing.
As Glenn points out in his tweet, Escobar would be another player coming to Houston this offseason with a championship pedigree. The Argentine fullback won MLS Cup with Atlanta United in 2018 and won the Supporters’ Shield and MLS Cup with LAFC this past season.
Escobar, who turns 28 next month, was a starter at Atlanta United and helped them lift MLS Cup in his first season in Major League Soccer in 2018.
