Eskandarian headed to Toronto

Soccer Betting Lines

12/26/2006 - Washington, D.C. (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Toronto FC took another step towards its inaugural Major League Soccer season by acquiring forward Alecko Eskandarian from D.C. United in exchange for a partial allocation.

The 24-year-old was the top overall selection in the 2003 MLS Superdraft by United. His four seasons in the nation's capital were hindered by various injuries, but the New Jersey native still managed to post 20 goals and seven assists in 81 appearances.

"Alecko was a tireless worker on and off the field for this club and it is difficult to part with him," said United technical director Dave Kasper. "He has been a big part of our recent accomplishments. We are, however, on the verge of signing major contributors and we know that in order to get something of value, we have to give up something of value."

United fell to New England last campaign in the Eastern Conference Championship after finishing the regular season with a league-high 55 points.

As for Toronto, this move adds to its offensive weapons for 2007 as Eskandarian joins Ronnie O'Brien, Jose Cancela and Edson Buddle on the front line.
