Surprising news from Commerce City, the long-lost Charles Eloundou arrived in Denver this evening. For those of you who have forgotten, the Rapids won the rights to the Cameroonian forward in a lottery back in January, only to have his rights get tied up by the Cameroonian FA and his club in Cameroon. Eloundou slipped off the radar after talks to get him to Colorado died down during the summer transfer window. Out of nowhere the Rapids announced his arrival a few minutes ago. No word as to what changed to get him here.
The roster freeze date has passed so he won't be eligible to play for the first team until the 2014 season starts. He has been playing with Coton Sport, his old club, this fall and he's been called up to the Cameroonian National Team in the last year. He'll start fitness work and acclimation to Denver tomorrow at the Dick.
