Soccer Betting Lines

02/01/2012 - Carson, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Galaxy announced Wednesday that it has signed Edson Buddle on a free transfer after the American striker spent one season in Germany with FC Ingolstadt.

Buddle previously featured for the Galaxy from 2007-2010, notching 42 goals in 87 regular season games over that stretch.

"I am thrilled to be able to return to MLS and a club that has meant so much to me in my career," Buddle said. "When I left for Germany last winter, I said that I hoped to be able to one day return to the Galaxy and help lead the club to an MLS Cup championship. That day is today and I look forward to the challenges that now lie ahead."

The 30-year-old has also garnered 10 caps for the United States National Team, scoring three goals. He was named to the 2010 World Cup squad under Bob Bradley and made substitute appearances against England and Algeria in the group stage.

Terms of the deal, which is still subject to the receipt of Buddle's International Transfer Certificate, were not disclosed.
