The LA Galaxy are finalizing a deal to acquire midfielder Edwin Cerrillo from FC Dallas, sources involved in the deal confirmed to The Athletic on Wednesday.Cerrillo, 22, is a product of Dallas’ academy. He made his MLS debut in 2019 and made 96 appearances for the club. He was an unused sub in Dallas’ Leagues Cup win over Mazatlan on Wednesday night.The defensive midfielder is expected to slot in as a starter with Gaston Brugman being injured. Cerrillo fits Greg Vanney’s playstyle as well.Dallas is light in the position without Cerrillo, though has room on the roster and under the budget to make additions before the deadline.MLS clubs don’t have to announce their moves before the deadline, so long as the paperwork is in by 1 a.m. ET when the deadline closes so there is likely to be a number of moves announced on Thursday.
Read that title twice, slowly. Lmao
