Keller Nears Relegation

Kasey Keller's Borussia Mönchengladbach fell deeper into the relegation zone with a loss yesterday to fellow Bundesliga strugglers Hamburg SV. If Keller's team fails to avoid the drop it will be interesting to see if Major League Soccer will make a serious attempt to bring the near legendary American keeper home to finish his career. In the past MLS has been less than straight in negotiations with Keller who has played in Europe since 1992. Keller noted in a recent interview that he had felt MLS had dealt with him three years ago when he left Spurs after being beat out by Paul Robinson for first team duty in a less than honest manner.

If Keller still wants to play, I see him catching on in Europe somewhere. With all of the goalkeeping talent available, I don't know if there would necessarily be a spot available to him in MLS. Also, can anybody afford him and would the money be right? I don't know if he is sexy enough of a player for a franchise to blow their Beckham exception on him.

I think someone will take a flyer on him in Germany or England as a #2 before he goes back to MLS.
