Reports of the Derlis Gonzalez rumors’ demise have been greatly exaggerated, it would appear. A couple weeks after the Seattle Sounders reportedly walked away from the negotiating table over Dynamo Kiev’s transfer fee demands, reports are now surfacing throughout Paraguayan media that the move is very much back on.
The most reputable report, so far, is through Paraguay radio station ABC Cardinal. It suggests Gonzalez will play one more preseason game with Dynamo on Wednesday before joining the Sounders.
Assuming this is accurate, it would be an absolutely massive signing for the Sounders.
