The Seattle Sounders are expected to sign 15-year-old Danny Leyva to their senior side.

The move would make the box-to-box midfielder the youngest signing in team history.

“We’ve been really pleased with Danny’s development. He’s a rangy midfielder who has an eye for goal and is very capable as a defensive player and ball-winner. He’s a highly intelligent player and has a maturity beyond his years in terms of his decision-making," said Sounders director of player development Marc Nicholls last season.
