After lengthy negotiations, FC Dallas will announce the signing of Brazilian midfielder Denilson on Friday. Here are some quotes from the FC Dallas press release announcing the signing:
"We are extremely excited to be able to add a world-class player like Denilson to our squad," said FC Dallas head coach Steve Morrow. "We've worked hard to build a team with players that have exceptional ability and also have the right attitude off the field. Adding a player like Denilson will improve us further and give us a boost as we go into the final stretch of the season."
"First, I want to thank all the people that helped make this happen with FC Dallas," said Denilson. "It is something took many days, but in the end came out well, as we had planned. And now, I am anxious to get started playing, and to join a team that is in a good position in the league. I hope that through my work I will be able to contribute to this team and have success in this league."

The addition of Denilson, 29, with just about nine matches to play makes an already solid FC Dallas, scary-good. Dallas were virtually assured a playoff spot already, now a possible first MLS Cup is a real possibility, depending on how well youngster Juan Toja is able to work with Denilson. In any event, the TYH mid-season prediction of who would win the MLS Cup is looking better all the time.
The onlty question is, who will be the next winner in the DP wars? Will DC United be able to lure Juan Sebastian Veron to town? Is Patirck Kluivert a pipe dream for New York or Houston? These are heady days for MLS fans. I just hope the Don Garber and the club GMs are keeping one eye on potential DPs and one eye on a copy of "The history of the NASL."
