It seems that there has been a little bit of confusion over the Rivas DP situation. Let me clarify a few things.
[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]French sports channel RDS leaked the rumour last night that Nelson Rivas would be the first MLS signing for Montreal, and that he would come in as a designated player.
However, in today's press conference, sporting director Nick De Santis confirmed that Nelson Rivas would be joining the club, but not as a DP.
De Santis said : "We were very creative in our negociations with Nelson, and he does not qualify as a DP."
I think that sums it all. Back to training camp now....
