Alright the Revs actually signed someone before training camp started!! Shit before the Draft! The first of many seriously needed steps for the Revolution. We are cautiously optimistic over the signing of 32 year old, French LB, Didier Domi.
Domi who was out of contract at Olympiacos in Greece has an impressive resume including Paris Saint-Germain, Newcastle, Leeds United and Espanyol. He comes the Revs with UEFA Champions League and Europa Cup experience as well.
Domi's experience should help to shore up the Revs backline and fill one of the many holes in the Revolution roster. However the Revolution still need to make some major moves for attacking players. His age is of some worry as we have had bad experience (Jankauskus) with aging European players. We hope that he'll be able to keep up during the summer heat and playing on Field Turf. Domi only played 60 games in four years with Olympiacos so one must worry about why that is, whether it be health, form or if he was just out of favor.
Domi has a transfer value of around $975k but at this time we do not have any salary information. Domi has not been signed as a DP, if we had to guess about salary we would estimate in the $200k range. We will look for more details and keep you updated as we find out more
