American Pines linked to Anderlecht

TRANSFERS From the United States, it sounds that Anderlecht would be willing to pay $2 million, some 1.96 million euros, for Donavan Pines. Pines is a 24-year-old central defender from D.C. United.


For the past two seasons, Pines has been a mostly base player in the MLS, but this season he's been on the bench more than he's been starting. The two-time international is said to already have several defensive errors to his credit.

Pines is still under contract with D.C. United until December 31 of this year. Transfermarkt estimates his value at 1.5 million euros.
