George John Deal Falls Through

It really is a bittersweet moment for FC Dallas and their fans. Defender George John is returning home to the club after his deal with EPL side Blackburn Rovers fell through this weekend.

The hulking defender will now join his club in Seattle for a USOC semifinal game on Tuesday with the Sounders. It’s tough to see this kid not get a dream deal like this but sometimes the timing of situations like this just don’t work out for whatever reason.

I’ll have more on this once I talk to George and his agent this week.
