Atiba Harris is now a member of FC Dallas after the club completed a trade with Chivas USA on Friday. Going the other way is midfielder Marcelo Saragosa.
“We’re excited to be able to bring Atiba Harris to FC Dallas,” said FCD Head Coach Schellas Hyndman. “He is a tough, hard-nosed player who can play as both a wide midfielder and forward. As a player with tremendous athleticism, speed and power, we feel he will be able to make an immediate impact. We’d like to thank Marcelo Saragosa for his dedication to FC Dallas for the last four years. We will certainly miss Marcelo, and we wish him all the best at Chivas USA.”
“Marcelo is a talented and versatile player who gives us several options in midfield,” said Chivas USA Head Coach Preki. “He has a lot of experience in both Brazil and MLS, and we look forward to having him in our squad. At the same time, we would like to thank Atiba Harris for his contributions to our club during the last two seasons. We wish him the best in this next stage of his career.”
