Report: Timbers to sign veteran MLS defender

With kick-off of the 2023 MLS season just 72 hours away, the Portland Timbers appear set to make a signing to bolster their roster ahead of their next campaign.

MLS insider Tom Bogert reported on Wednesday afternoon that Portland is set to sign MLS veteran Eric Miller to reinforce the depth of their squad. Last week the Timbers parted ways with centerback Bill Tuiloma for up to $900K in general allocation money in a trade with Charlotte FC, leaving them with a hole in the depth chart at CB.

Now, it looks like they’ve filled it.
