The league may have rejected a deal to bring David Ousted to LA, but it appears the front office had a backup plan.
According to league sources, the Galaxy are close to finalizing a trade that would see the Earthquakes goalkeeper head to Los Angeles in exchange for a combination of GAM and TAM funds.
If the deal is completed, San Jose will receive a combination of General Allocation Money and Targeted Allocation Money between $200,000 and $250,000.
Bingham, 28, joins the Galaxy after enduring a difficult 2017 campaign, one in which he lost his starting spot in San Jose to Andrew Tarbell.
