It was all made official today. Seattle Sounders FC unveiled Swedish winger Freddie Ljungberg as their designated player for 2009.
With 18,000 season tickets sold and veteran American keeper Kasey Keller, Sounders FC is, on paper, having the best start than any expansion club to date.
Ljungberg becomes the seventh designated player in MLS, along with David Beckham, Juan Pablo Angel, Cuauhtémoc Blanco, Marcelo Gallardo, Claudio Lopez, and Luciano Emilio.
Here is a list of articles about the announcement:
