"When the time of the [first] loan was over, Landon [Donovan] had the feeling that more time in the USA would be good for him. But meanwhile, he became U.S. Player of the Year twice and played outstanding in the World Cup. Now, he realized that he's got to make the next step. He will play the next season in the USA from April to November and probably start working for us on January 1."
