Francis Doe signed

We'll soon announce that Francis Doe has been signed as a senior international. He'll be available for selection following receipt of his P-1 Visa. The forward joined the team on trial last week after being waived by the Red Bulls earlier this year. His professional career includes stops in Greece, Ghana, Cameroon and the United States of America.
An interesting tidbit that we found out from Francis yesterday is that while with Atromitos (Greece) he played in a UEFA Cup game against Spain's Sevilla. He's also played in World Cup and African Cup of Nations qualifiers for his native Liberia.

Hopefully Tommy was right when he said Doe will add another dimension to the team. Why not give him a shot!

Kyle,
I think you mean that Doe will be an international player on a senior contract, but given that MLS/USSF eliminated the Senior International/Youth International distinction this year, that might be a bit confusing.
