Although it looks to be only a matter of time until Victor Rodriguez is officially unveiled as the Seattle Sounders’ newest signing, the situation surrounding Derlis Gonzalez appears to be not quite as close to finalized as previous reports suggested.
According to ESPN, “it's still unclear if the Sounders will get the deal over the finish line before the close of the summer transfer window on Aug. 9, and that there is still much work to be done.”
While the Sounders have the best offer on the table — and Gonzalez seems inclined to accept — Dynamo Kiev’s transfer fee demands have still not been met.
