The flurry of activity around Toronto FC continued again late Monday morning.
The team announced the acquisition of American defender Eriq Zavaleta from the Seattle Sounders in exchange for a second-round pick in the 2016 MLS SuperDraft.
Zavaleta, 22, spent last season on loan with Chivas USA, where he made 17 appearances.
The 10th-overall pick in the 2013 SuperDraft out of Indiana, Zavaleta has represented the US internationally at the under-17 level.
Zavaleta is the nephew of TFC head coach Greg Vanney.
He joins Damien Perquis, signed from Real Betis also on Monday, as part of the Reds' new-look backline.
