FC Dallas re-sign talented trio Akindele, Diaz, Hernandez

FC Dallas announced on Thursday that they have signed a trio of young guns to new deals.


The Texan outfit have re-signed forward Tesho Akindele, midfielder Mauro Diaz and defender Moises Hernandez to multi-year deals.

24-year old Diaz and 23-year old Hernandez will remain in Dallas until at least the end of 2019 while Akindele, 23, has signed on until 2018.

"I think it's very important, obviously, to give continually to the core players that have been here when they're still young and most importantly committed with the club," head coach Oscar Pareja said.

"I think there's a lot to read in that decision from these players to trust the club and trust the coaching staff and the fans and the city and everybody here. We're pleased to have them."
