One of the players the Seattle Sounders apparently inquired about adding this offseason was Juan Dinenno, a player they saw up close and personal during the Concacaf Champions League final. But after an initial inquiry, the pursuit doesn’t appear to have advanced, according to Mexican outlet AM. A source familiar with the situation suggested the approach wasn’t even that formal, as the Sounders knew Dinenno would have required a Designated Player spot and their roster can’t currently accommodate such a move.
Still, the Sounders were clearly impressed by Dinenno and he may be someone they continue to keep an eye on.
