The Brian Ching saga appears to be very close to ending. The latest reports suggest that the deal is now hinging on the Houston Dynamo being able to renegotiate with Ching and that the Montreal Impact would receive a conditional draft pick in return (via Fox 26).
Brian Ching-To-Houston Dynamo All But Finished, Report Says
This clearly does not seem to have played out in the favor of the Impact or Ching. The Impact will have essentially gotten a conditional draft pick for one of their expansion draft selections and Ching will have had to take a presumably substantial pay cut.
After taking a bit of a public relations hit initially, the Dynamo now seem poised to come out of this as the winners. They’ll have retained a popular player and have him back in plenty of time to help break in their new stadium. If Ching can remain healthy, they’ll likely have a reasonably productive player at a much more salary-cap friendly price.
