The Houston Dynamo will announce the signing of Mexican striker Luis Angel Landin on loan from Mexican side Cruz Azul this afternoon, sources confirmed on Thursday.
The Dynamo has scheduled a press conference for today at 3pm to introduce its newest player, and sources tell SBI that the player is Landin, the same player Houston has been tracking for a year.
According to Bernardo Fallas of the Houston Chronicle, Landin will count as a Designated Player for the Dynamo, marking the first Designated Player in the club's history.
What do you think of the signing? Is Landin the missing piece that will bring the MLS Cup title back to Houston? Glad to see the Dynamo adding a player like Landin considering the club could lose Ricardo Clark and Stuart Holden to Europe this winter? Still think Columbus is the favorite to repeat as MLS Cup champions?
