Earthquakes Sign LB Marcos Lanfranco from Sporting Cristal

According to a press release from Sporting Cristal the Peruvian side has made a deal to bring young left-back Marcos López Lanfranco to San Jose. Terms of the agreement were not discussed, but the press release mentions that Cristal will get 20% of any future transfer fees for Lopez. This signing fills a big gap in the Earthquakes lineup and looks like yet another signing of new manager Matias Almeyda. The Argentine has made a reputation of giving young players the opportunity to prove themselves on the pitch, and it looks like he brought that mentality to San Jose.
